How should academic library websites change in an open access world?

In How academic libraries may change when Open Access becomes the norm  , I
argued that as open access takes hold, academic libraries will increasingly
focus on Expertise based services like bibliometrics, open access
publishing, GIS services, Research data management and more.

The question is this, with this change in focus how should academic
libraries reflect these changes in priorities on their library website? It
is after all the digital front door of the library and it sends out a
message on what the library is about.
