The 2015 Midwest Data Librarian Symposium was the inaugural launch of this now widely-attended un-conference series. Attendees were encouraged to submit lightning presentations on local developments in the area of data management support from within their Libraries. This brief presentation highlighted early work undertaken to develop a checklist that my role as Metadata & Digital Curation could make use of to navigate faculty researcher questions that arise when considering where to store and maintain research data during active stages of any given sponsored research project.
