An essential collection of essays for librarians looking to support
E-science programs and capabilities to their institutions. From the
frontiers of contemporary information science research comes this
helpful and timely volume for libraries preparing for the deluge of
data that E-science can deliver to their patrons and institutions.
The Data Deluge: Can Libraries Cope with E-Science? brings together
nine of the world's foremost authorities on the capabilities and
requirements of E-science, offering their perspectives to
librarians hoping to develop similar programs for their own
institutions. The essays contained in The Data Deluge were adapted
from papers first delivered at the prestigious annual Library Round
Table at the Kanazawa Institute of Technology, where E-science has
been the theme from the past two annual conferences. Now this
groundbreaking work is available in convenient printed format for
the first time. The essays are divided into three parts: an
overview of E-science challenges for libraries; perspectives on
E-science; and perspectives from individual research libraries.
Comprises essays from nine expert contributors-each an innovator
who has successfully integrated E-science programs at their
institutions Includes bibliographies to additional readings and
resources about E-science
