Her keynote speech at LIBER 2019 is entitled ‘Research for Society – the new world of public engagement, citizen science, community and civic action’. Linda describes the talk as follows:

“The talk will begin by looking at why research matters to society. It will look at the invisible (often times digital) forces shaping our daily lives to show how important it is that these are firstly understood and secondly driven in the direction that is best for our world. To look at these forces topics such as Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, new forms of currency among others will feature. The talk will go on to look the role of the citizen in developing this understanding and interrogating the physical and digital world around us. It will explore how co-creation of research can be facilitated through creative arts practices as well as more traditional research methodologies and understand new forms of civic action that might take place. It will finish by looking at how the library of today and the library of the future sits within this space.”
