DESCRIPTION
The notes for this talk have not uploaded properly. Please download them from this link: http://10ml.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/speaker_notes.docx as the main content is there, not in the visuals. In a world of open data, open knowledge, civic hacking and grassroots activism, what opportunities are there for information professionals? What does the rapidly changing digital landscape means for all of us as we move from traditional provider-consumer models to one in which everyone can produce, hack or add value to existing data, information, knowledge or services. A keynote talk I gave to Grampian Information Conference 2014. http://www.grampianinfo.co.uk/grampian-information-conference-2014.html
