Joan K. LippincottCoalition for Networked Information
A Time of Great Change
Technology environment
Scholarly communication
Student style/skills Way people work Expectations
For research, teaching & learning, we are dependent on:
High speed networks Computer equipment Access to print and digital content Tools and software Support from knowledgeable staff Technology-enabled facilities
Working together, these form the
Institutional Cyberinfrastructure
NSF Report on Cyberinfrastructure
NSF and Cyberinfrastructure
“The emerging vision is to use cyberinfrastructure to build more ubiquitous, comprehensive digital environments that become interactive and functionally complete for research communities in terms of people, data, information, tools, and instruments that operate at unprecedented levels of computational, storage, and data transfer capacity.”
