“The role of the Library in data-intensive research is important and a strategic repositioning of the Library with respect to research support is now appropriate.”
“there are…not enough specialised data librarians yet”
“Recommendation: The research library community in the UK should work with universities and research institutes to define properly and to formalise the role of data librarians, and to develop a curriculum that ensures a suitable supply of librarians skilled in data handling.”
