[Irtalk] COAR » Task Force on Librarians’ Competencies in Support of E-Research and Scholarly Communication

[Hilton Gibson]

Rapid changes in technology and associated shifts in research and scholarly
communications are profoundly changing the role of libraries in the 21st
century. The emergence of e-research, for example, is bringing about new
ways of doing science across the globe, compelling libraries to adopt new
services, such as assisting with the development of research data
management plans, hosting collaborative virtual research environments,
managing institutional repositories, and disseminating research outputs
through open access mechanisms. These novel services require a range of new
skills and expertise within the library community as well as a shift in
organizational models for libraries.
