Defined the scholarly record as that which has already been written in all disciplines ... that stable body of graphic information, upon which each discipline bases its discussions, and against which each discipline measures its progress.
Went on to observe that the definition of the recordthe designation of those publications which should constitute the recordhas always been one of the librarys primary social and epistemological functions.

Librarians are the natural stewards of the scholarly record, concerning themselves not only with selecting and providing access to the best research materials that their budgets allow, but in preserving those materials for the use of future generations.

20. Stewardship
Historically, universities have played a leadership role in the advancement of knowledge and shouldered substantial responsibility for the long-term preservation of knowledge through their university libraries. An expanded role for some research and academic libraries and universities, along with other partners, in digital data stewardship is a topic for critical debate and affirmation.
The scale of the challenge regarding the stewardship of digital data requires that responsibilities be distributed across multiple entities and partnerships that engage institutions, disciplines, and interdisciplinary domains.

21. Stewardship
There is a need for a close linking between digital data archives, scholarly publications, and associated communication. The potential for an expanded role for research libraries in the area of digital data stewardship affords opportunities to address these important linkages.
Stakeholder groups have different expertise, outlooks, assumptions, and motivations Forging partnerships will require transcending and reconciling cultural differences. Collaboration models to share expertise and resources will be critical.
