This document discusses the future of information infrastructures and open science. It notes that for effective communication, replication and repurposing of scientific knowledge, data and metadata must be accessible, intelligible, assessable and reusable. Open science involves making the scientific record free of financial barriers, quality-assured, archived and available for any purpose or reuse. However, open data policies must be audience sensitive and consider who can access and use the data. The role of libraries is shifting from being collections-centered to engagement-centered by building services around user workflows and participating in the entire research process.
