A team of specialists (in collaboration with liaisons) provides expertise, tools, and coordination that supports data management, publishing, the institutional repository, digital projects, and research curation.

Project Management Office
The Project Management Office works across the library to partner and support a variety of project management needs. This could include being fully embedded within a project team or serving as a consultant. The PMO can help with defining scope, establishing deliverables, and setting milestones.
