Editor Carrie Forbes has gathered an excellent collection of essays and case studies from scholars, administrators, and practicing librarians on current and future practices for working in scholarly communication. This is sure to be an invaluable guide for all librarians working in areas of outreach for scholarly communications services, including copyright, digital publishing, data preservation, and faculty research assistance. The book focuses on the emerging roles for liaisons, providing research data management services, establishing the library as a publisher, and ways to further the professional development of 'Schol Comm' librarians.--Andrew Weiss, digital services librarian, California State University, Northridge; author of The Dark Side of our Digital World and Big Data Shocks Librarians have the expertise and campus positioning necessary to advance research and dissemination in higher education, and this well curated volume brings together a diverse set of voices sharing experience in doing just that. From research data management services to publication support, evidence synthesis to copyright, readers will find case studies and best practices that they can draw upon to influence research practices and policies at their own institutions. Recommended reading for librarians and campus partners alike.--Amanda Scull, Head of Education and Information Services, Dartmouth College Biomedical Libraries
