The document discusses librarians' growing role in managing data. It outlines the data lifecycle process of conceptualizing, creating/receiving, appraising, ingesting, preserving, storing, accessing, reusing and transforming data. It then lists several tools and services librarians can use to support each step, such as NSF data management planning, Merritt for preservation, and Duke Data Accessioner for ingestion. The presentation emphasizes that data management is a new challenge where opportunities exist for librarians to get involved through services, training and policies.
