About the session

 'The empires of the future are the empires of the mind': defining the role of libraries in the Open Science landscape

his paper looks at the emerging issues around Open Science and identifies what the role for libraries can be.  It does this by looking at four areas: Open Access, Research Data Management, the Library as publisher and Citizen Science.  The paper concludes by painting a picture for the Library full of opportunity, but one where current systems and practices need to change.
