Author Toolkit: Complying with Funder Policies

This guide provides resources to help authors navigate the processes of research, writing, publication, and dissemination of scholarly works.

Complying with Funder Policies

Many federal agencies, and an increasing number of private funders, require researchers to make their findings publicly accessible through:

  • creating data management plans.
  • depositing data in publicly accessible repositories.
  • depositing articles to publicly accessible repositories.

Data Management Plans

The library can help you create data management plans for NIH proposals, protocols, and other types of projects.

NIH Public Access Policy
