The Data Stewardship project is a new initiative from the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands. Its aim is to create mature working practices and policies regarding research data management across all TU Delft faculties. The novelty of this project relies on having a dedicated person, the so-called ‘Data Steward’, embedded in each faculty to approach research data management from a more discipline-specific perspective. It is within this framework that a research data management survey was carried out at the faculties that had a Data Steward in place by July 2018. The goal was to get an overview of the general data management practices, and use its results as a benchmark for the project. The total response rate was 11 to 37% depending on the faculty. Overall, the results show similar trends in all faculties, and indicate lack of awareness regarding different data management topics such as automatic data backups, data ownership, relevance of data management plans, awareness of FAIR data principles and usage of research data repositories. The results also show great interest towards data management, as more than ~80% of the respondents in each faculty claimed to be interested in data management training and wished to see the summary of survey results. Thus, the survey helped identified the topics the Data Stewardship project is currently focusing on, by carrying out awareness campaigns and providing training at both university and faculty levels.

RESUMO As tarefas de gestão de dados de pesquisa ao longo do processo de pesquisa têm se tornado muito importantes devido à alta produção de dados e à exigência da sua preservação. Tanto bibliotecas quanto seções de apoio à pesquisa de diversas instituições de ensino e pesquisa têm começado a implementar serviços para a gestão de dados e a profissionalização desta gestão. Com um caráter qualitativo, e após um levantamento bibliográfico em bases de dados abertas, contextualiza-se a gestão de dados de pesquisa, analisam-se os perfis profissionais e determinam-se três fases para a implementação institucional destes serviços: elaboração de uma política, estabelecimento de uma unidade de informação e integração de profissionais da gestão de dados.Palavras-chave: Administração de Dados; Dados de Pesquisa; Gestão de Dados de Pesquisa; Política de Dados; Serviços Institucionais.   ABSTRACT The tasks of managing research data throughout the research process have become very important due to the high production of data and the requirement for its preservation. Both libraries and research support sections of various research institutions have started to implement services for data management and the professionalization of this management. With a qualitative character, and after a bibliographic search in open databases, research data management is contextualized, professional profiles are analyzed, and three phases are determined for the institutional implementation of these services: the elaboration of a policy, the establishment of an information unit and the integration of data management professionals.Keywords: Data Stewardship; Research Data; Research Data Management; Data Policy; Institutional Services.

Abstract Decentralized research data management (dRDM) systems handle digital research objects across participating nodes without critically relying on central services. We present four perspectives in defense of dRDM, illustrating that, in contrast to centralized or federated research data management solutions, a dRDM system based on heterogeneous but interoperable components can offer a sustainable, resilient, inclusive, and adaptive infrastructure for scientific stakeholders: An individual scientist or laboratory, a research institute, a domain data archive or cloud computing platform, and a collaborative multisite consortium. All perspectives share the use of a common, self-contained, portable data structure as an abstraction from current technology and service choices. In conjunction, the four perspectives review how varying requirements of independent scientific stakeholders can be addressed by a scalable, uniform dRDM solution and present a working system as an exemplary implementation.
