ARL, CNI, EDUCAUSE Release Final Report on Landscape of Emerging Technologies in Research Libraries — Association of Research Libraries

Today the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), and EDUCAUSE released their final report on Mapping the Current Landscape of Research Library Engagement with Emerging Technologies in Research and Learning.

This report is part of the joint ARL, CNI and EDUCAUSE project looking at emerging technologies of high impact and importance for research libraries. On the broad initiative, see

ARL, CNI, EDUCAUSE Form Strategic Partnership to Advance Research Libraries’ Impact in a World Shaped by New Technologies — Association of Research Libraries

The Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), and EDUCAUSE are working together to better understand how research libraries, as collaborative partners in the research and learning enterprise, can best advance research and learning during these times of significant changes in the production, dissemination, and reuse of digital content.

Some of the timelines and plans for this work have obviously shifted in response to the pandemic, which emerged midway through the project. We will be releasing several additional deliverables in the coming months to conclude the effort.
