The main trends in the “Big Science” scientific communication are specified. The developing system of book and periodical publishing, scientific events, scientific schools and invisible colleges is discussed. The institution of peer reviewing is described. Presentation of library and information scientific publications in international science citation databases is characterized. Main features of scientific schools and invisible colleges within library and information science under the circumstances of wide use of information and communication technologies are defined. The conclusions are made on the status of scientific communications and communications between researchers and practitioners. The modern digital communication channels enable to enhance the interaction and to apply research findings to the library and information sphere which, in its turn, will support greater transparency and visibility of scientific activities and research and their intensive use by professional community.
