E-science and information services: a missing link in the context of digital libraries
Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to analyse whether, and how far, library and information services (LIS) are involved in e-Science and grid computing projects funded by authorities in the European Union and Germany. It explains and emphasises the relevance of LIS-based information services and expertise in e-Science activities.
Design/methodology/approach – Projects were analysed to determine the extent to which institutions or persons with LIS expertise were involved and information services provided.
Findings – Very few of the e-Science projects made use of LIS-based services.
