English abstract

This article highlights the opportunity that libraries have to transform and develop their services towards the management and exploitation of data. After setting the scene in the introduction, the article provides a definition of library data services and explains the meaning of term “data” in multiple settings. In order to prove that data services within libraries are not uncommon, the evolution of these types of services is analysed: from the initial social science data libraries to the current research data management services and data curation. This leads to expanding the role of data services as a strategic area for the analysis of the organizational knowledge, always led by libraries. The article finishes by looking at the new professionals, their skills and the background required to provide this new library data services

Spanish abstract

Se plantea la oportunidad que se les presenta a las bibliotecas de transformarse y dar nuevos servicios de gestión y explotación de los datos. Se ofrece una breve definición de los servicios de datos en la biblioteca. Para demostrar que no es algo disonante para el entorno bibliotecario, se explica el significado del término datos (data) en múltiples contextos y se realiza un recorrido histórico por la evolución de este tipo de servicios: desde las primeras bibliotecas de datos en ciencias sociales en el entorno anglosajón hasta los actuales servicios de gestión de datos de investigación y data curation. A continuación se amplían las funciones del servicio de datos como un eje estratégico para el análisis y el conocimiento interno de la institución, siempre liderado por la biblioteca. Finalmente se abordan los perfiles de los nuevos profesionales, los conocimientos y la formación necesarios para poder ofrecer las funciones requeridas desde bibliotecas
