The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) has published issue 276 of Research Library Issues (RLI). This issue of RLI features a speech on the future of the research university presented by McGill University Principal and Vice-Chancellor Heather Munroe-Blum at the May 2011 ARL Membership Meeting.
Also in this issue, Karen Hogenboom, Tom Teper, and Lynn Wiley from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign explore the challenges of collecting 'small data' (as opposed to 'big data'). Finally, ARL's Brandon Butler sheds light on two common misleading copyright claims.
Research Library Issues is a Bimonthly Report from ARL, CNI, and SPARC. The freely available, online-only publication is released six times per year by the ARL. RLI focuses on the major issues that affect the ability of research libraries to meet the academic and research needs of the diverse communities they serve. RLI, no. 276 (September 2011) is freely available at http://publications.arl.org/rli276.
