This study aims to: (i) systematically analyze the publication characteristics of RDM-related research, (ii) identify its key research topics and to reveal its semantic structures and thematic features. To achieve this, a combination of bibliometric analysis and BERTopic-based topic modeling was applied to 1154 RDM-related articles indexed in the Web of Science database from 2005 to 2024. The results show a notable increase in RDM research outputs since the FAIR principles were introduced in 2016, with journals coming from the fields of library science, information science, and medical informatics highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of the field. Analysis of international collaboration shows that the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany occupy a central position, with increasingly diverse patterns of global collaboration. The BERTopic modeling identified 18 representative topics, which were divided into four semantically coherent research directions: Cluster 1 focuses on institutional services, capacity development, and platform support; Cluster 2 focuses on data citation, research assessment, and collaboration networks, emphasizing the role of RDM in assessing impact and scholarly collaboration; Cluster 3 addresses data sharing, reuse and misuse, highlighting governance challenges related to data use norms and risk control; Cluster 4 covers open science strategies, open access publishing and journal data policies, highlighting how RDM is increasingly embedded in scholarly communication. This study fills gaps in previous reviews on subject hierarchy and semantic modeling and provides theoretical insights and methodological support for strengthening research data governance and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103126"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144908694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, when technology is centered over that of human-interaction, it can create unintentional consequences that impact library workers' effectiveness and feelings of burnout. This study seeks to understand these effects by examining the intersection of burnout, feelings about technology, and the impact it all has on academic library workers' sense of effectiveness. Using a scale to measure technostress, including ranked and open-ended responses, fifty-four surveys were collected from academic library workers. Findings demonstrate that academic libraries are technocented environments and are influenced by technology related stressors, such as constant connectivity, disruption, and role overload. Even though academic library workers describe improved productivity, technology overuse negatively effects library workers' wellbeing. Academic leaders seeking to foster well-0being must account for how new and existing technologies mediate library workers' ability to sustain relational focus with patrons and colleagues. This consideration is essential when adopting technologies aimed at improving technology effectiveness. This study offers academic library leadership considerations for creating human-centered approaches when using and adapting new technology.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103125"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144908695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These skills overlap considerably with the competencies academic librarians categorize as information literacy skills: formulating research questions, assessing information needs, organizing information, synthesizing multiple sources, and communicating findings across multiple different media formats. We explored whether laboratory courses were an effective context for information and data literacy by scaffolding instructional interventions across three years of the undergraduate biomedical engineering (BME) curriculum. Utilizing a longitudinal pre-test/post-test design, we analyzed students' performance on multiple-choice and open-response assessments to evaluate their knowledge gains and retention over time. Our results indicated statistically significant improvements in students' ability to identify appropriate information sources and relevant library-licensed resources for different types of technical information. This suggests that science and engineering students can benefit from having librarians consistently offer guest-lectures throughout their academic careers, if these instructional interventions are customized to align with the specific tasks students will be expected to complete within their coursework. These findings also emphasize the importance of librarians and STEM educators collaborating to design instructional interventions together to create customized learning experiences that align with course objectives.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103124"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144890103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings reveal that all requirements vary in different priority level from multi-stakeholder perspectives. Six requirements were classified as “one-dimensional (O),” one as “attractive (A),” and the remaining as “indifferent (I).” Top priority requirements include specific and explicit RDM guidelines, access to open data resources, user-friendly access, information retrieval systems training, access to data analysis applications and secure research data storage methods. The study provides a framework for prioritising RDMS requirements based on multi-stakeholder perspectives, offering valuable insights for Myanmar university libraries and other developing areas initiating RDMS implementation.
