Institutional Data Science Services at FDZ UB Mannheim: Enhancing Research Data Management

Abstract: Data science services have rapidly emerged as essential support mechanisms for research data management (RDM) at universities worldwide. In alignment with these developments, the research data center (FDZ) at the Mannheim University Library (UB Mannheim) has established institutional data science services at the University of Mannheim. Our goal is to enhance RDM, promote open science, and contribute to research reproducibility. FDZ supports researchers across the complete data science pipeline, emphasizing advanced data collection methods (OCR, audio/video transcription, API integration, web scraping) and chatbot and large language model (LLM) applications. Our services include data-science-as-a-service, education and training, consultancy, community engagement, and integration of data science methods within internal library workflows. In this paper we introduce our services, describe the challenges we faced, and analyze the impact these services have had on RDM at the University of Mannheim.
