Abstract

EDITOR'S SUMMARY

The new field of data science involves advanced knowledge in statistics and computer science, combined with copious amounts of data. A report from the Big Data and Research Initiative under the Obama Administration, The Federal Big Data Research and Development Strategic Plan, calls attention to the roles that librarians will play in the future of data science. However, there are skills and management gaps librarians face that inhibit their ability to move forward in data science. A number of educational programs are now offered to remedy this problem, such as the Data and Visualization Institute for Librarians from North Carolina State University, the volunteer-led Library Carpentry program, and most recently, the Data Sciences in Libraries Project, funded by the IMLS. This project aims to get librarians and library managers together to discuss the world of data science and create a roadmap for strategic planning.

图书馆的数据科学
数据科学的新领域涉及统计学和计算机科学的高级知识,并结合大量数据。一份来自奥巴马政府大数据和研究计划的报告《联邦大数据研究和发展战略计划》呼吁人们关注图书馆员在未来数据科学中所扮演的角色。然而,图书馆员面临的技能和管理差距阻碍了他们在数据科学方面的发展。现在有许多教育项目可以解决这个问题,比如北卡罗来纳州立大学图书馆员的数据和可视化研究所,志愿者领导的图书馆木工项目,以及最近由IMLS资助的图书馆数据科学项目。这个项目旨在让图书馆员和图书馆管理者一起讨论数据科学的世界,并为战略规划制定路线图。
