Journal article identified Via online topical search. Open access., Authors report a case example that illustrates how academic libraries and librarians "are primed to lead universities toward a fuller inclusion of community partners in academic research" through their unique expertise. The "research sprint" partnership involved experiences of the Gullah-Geechee community - the descendants of Africans who were enslaved along the east coast of the United States.
2 pages., Online via Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Author suggests that universities and research centres "persist with 19th century methods of data gathering, scholarly analysis, and journal articles. Today's world needs science in real-time, whether to detect drought, confront Ebola, or assist refugees. Research needs to work faster and embrace 21st century practices including data science, open access, and infographics."
