contributes to professional advancement

Researchers: what is necessary to
validate & build on current literature

Publishers: peer-reviewed content
Scholarly record: content & perspective
‘Meters’ :
what is cited
Stakeholder roles reconfiguring:
New paths for the scholarly communication supply chain
Format transition:
Print-centric to digital, networked
Framework
Boundaries blurring:
Articles/monographs, but
also research data, computer
models, video, blogs,
visualizations, conference
posters & presentations,
pre-prints, etc.
In practice:
Where does
the library fit
in this system?
Create
Fix
Use
Collect
Key characteristics impacting stewardship …
• Increasing volume of content
• Increasing diversity/complexity of content
• Increasing distribution of custodial responsibility
‘local copies’ of scholarly record are increasingly partial
discovery and management are increasingly fragmented
coherence of scholarly record is reduced

• Community consultation around framework
– Use cases for library assessment , alt-metrics,
collection development strategies, etc.
• Stewardship of ‘system-wide’ scholarly record
– Higher education trends that are driving
concentration/distribution of custodial roles
– Division of labor; incentives & benefits
– Coordination models; cooperative infrastructure
