A Comparative Analysis of Digital Scholarship Services in China's and the United States' University Libraries
Abstract The development of digital information technology provided convenient tools, platforms and methods. It has also made data collection and analysis crucial parts of academic research, which leads to some new requirements like scientific data monitoring, visual presentation and digital publication. Therefore, in this paper, 8 Ivy League university libraries and the 9 Chinese C9 Leagues university libraries were chosen, and then a thorough online survey was done and a comparative analysis was conducted. Specifically, attention was paid to explore what services are provided by those libraries during different period of a research project and how they are provided. Further comparison was conducted about the digital scholarship services provided in China's university libraries and those university libraries in the United States. Three suggestions are put forward in the hope to promote and deepen digital scholarship services in China's university libraries.

1 引言
近年來,数字学术服务逐渐成为了高校图书馆科研服务的核心内容之一。根据美国大学与研究图书馆协会(Association of College and Research Libraries,ACRL)于2016年6月发布的《2016高校图书馆发展趋势》报告,数字学术服务位列图书馆服务十二大趋势中的第二位[1]。数字学术服务是指图书馆针对多学科科研人员进行跨学科合作的需求,充分运用新兴信息技术,通过组织、标引、挖掘和利用各类资源,深入科学研究生命周期各个环节开展的全方位学术服务[1]。
在实践中,数字学术服务在欧美地区发展迅速,很多高校已经建立了专门的机构——数字学术中心。虽然具体称谓不尽一致,但其实质都是以数字信息技术为主要手段、提供数字学术服务并服务于跨学科合作与研究[2]。……
