Recent years have seen a rapid increase in access to massive amounts of data, as well as increased interest from funding agencies in ensuring that research is reproducible, transparent, and has long-term impact. These trends, along with other factors, are placing new and shifting pressures on research communities and the institutions that support them. This talk will examine these pressures with an eye toward the challenges they present for researchers and the opportunities for academic libraries to help address them.
