4. Conclusions

4. ConclusionsSpace is (largely) a metaphor, however…
› The data “problem” is only getting bigger– Data literacy becoming key for researchers,
students and the general public alike› We need to develop new skills and tools to
support reproducibility and re-usable workflows– This points to a partnership between “IT people”
(e.g. Research Software Engineers) and “Librarians” (Information Scientists)

4. Conclusions

We have more power than we think…› Universities were the original “cloud providers”
– The sector runs its own repositories and can run its own journal platforms and university presses
› But publishers are the archivists for the back catalogue of the scientific record– We need to work out how to collaborate better
› We need to think big– Let’s get started!
