Ithaka S+R is a nonprofit research organization that helps academic and cultural communities serve the public good and navigate economic, technological, and demographic change. In this conversation, we discuss a report they released on the research practices and support needs of researchers working with big data. The report draws on interviews with over two hundred researchers from dozens of disciplinary backgrounds about their big data practices, with an emphasis on exploring what library leaders can learn about how to align data support with researchers' priorities. The report is titled Big Data Infrastructure at the Crossroads.
