Abstract
In the context of e-science and open access, visibility and impact of scientific results and data have become important aspects for spreading information to users and to the society in general. The objective of this general trend of the economy is to feed the innovation process and create economic value. In our institute, the French National Research Institute of Science and Technology for Environment and Agriculture, Irstea, the department in charge of scientific and technical information, with the help of other professionals (scientists, IT professionals, ethics advisors, etc.), has recently developed suitable services for researchers and their data management needs in order to answer European recommendations for open data. This situation has demanded a review of the different workflows between databases, questioning the organizational aspects among skills, occupations, and departments in the institute. In fact, data management involves all professionals and researchers assessing their workflows together.

This presentation is faithful to the original, with only a few minor changes to presentation. In some cases important information was missing from the references, and that information was added. The original article lists references alphabetically, but this version — by design — lists them in order of appearance.
