Abstract
The aim of this poster is to present the challenges of scientific collaboration and how university libraries can contribute to solve them. Survey responses from 3070 researchers (N=11090) of the main universities of the Valencia region in Spain, were analyzed. 76,35% of the professors of Valencia Region universities in Spain, participated in collaborative research in 2015-2016; from this group, 94.34% value collaboration as critical or essential. University Libraries should engage with and promote: • The development and dissemination of information services (provide technical resources, multipurpose database [funding, impact, researchers, teams or institutions] and provide physical meeting spaces and events). • Expansion of services (provide support and access, conduct training activities, and develop systems for evaluating the cooperative work and activities of research groups/research teams). • Specialized services provided within research teams (librarians embedded in research teams, and participating in writing and reviewing manuscripts).
