      ab: This paper will explore potential roles for libraries in support of data-intensive research and inquiry. Scholars and researchers from many disciplines are using vast amounts of data to advance our understanding of both the physical nature of our world and its place in the universe, as well as to gain new insights into the behaviours of societies and individuals. Humanists are rapidly integrating newly digitised corpora, digital representations of material culture and spatial and temporal indexed data into their scholarly endeavours. Libraries have undergone significant transformation over the past several decades in confronting the 'digital deluge' and integrating digital content into their holdings. However assuming additional responsibilities for managing and making large and complex data sets available and providing new tools for users presents significant challenges given limited resources. This paper examines data-intensive scholarship and suggest viable roles for libraries.
