Data-intensive science presents new opportunities as well as challenges to research libraries. The cyberinfrastructural challenge, although chiefly technological, also involves social-economic and human factors, therefore requires a deep understanding of what roles research libraries should play in the research lifecycle. This paper discusses the rationale and motivations behind a research project to investigate effective library big data cyberinfrastructure strategies.
