*Call for Papers: IFLA Journal special issue on Research Data Services*
Libraries and archives around the world are applying the principles of
library and archival sciences to address challenges and provide new
services related to research data management. Librarians are helping
researchers address needs throughout the research data lifecycle, for
example, by conducting assessment and outreach, consulting on data
management plans and metadata, incorporating data into information
literacy instruction and collection management, and providing data
publication and preservation services.
IFLA Journal invites papers for a special issue focused on research
data services and libraries across all continents. The issue will be
published in October 2016 as Volume 42:3. In particular, the main goal
of the special issue is to gather the latest theory, research, and
state-of-the-art practices from libraries that are informing and
innovating effective data services.

Wolfram Horstmann, Director, Göttingen State and University Library
Michael Witt, Head, Distributed Data Curation Center, Purdue
