Do STEM researchers understand STEM librarians’ data management terminology?

In Spring 2021, STEM research librarians at Pennsylvania State University conducted a mixed-methods research project to investigate the research data management (RDM) awareness and practice of STEM researchers across the university. Through a quantitative survey and qualitative focus groups, the librarians set out to answer two related questions: Do researchers understand the terminology commonly employed by librarians when discussing RDM? and What terminology do researchers from different disciplines use when discussing RDM? Preliminary results from textual analyses will be shared during this presentation and attendees will learn how STEM researchers at an R1 university – in five different academic disciplines – understand and define RDM terminology commonly used by academic STEM librarians.
