The article is devoted to the urgent problem of using the tools and services of cloud-oriented systems for the professional development teachers of lyceums as a new type of general secondary education institution as well as the effective use of these tools and services to ensure the quality of specialized education. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the choice of tools and services of cloud-oriented open science systems for the professional development of lyceum teachers. The directions of lyceum teacher’s professional development are determined with the help of such research methods as analysis, generalization, systematization of scientific and scientific-methodical sources on the research problem, and analysis of cloud-oriented tools and services. The author proposes to select tools and services by categories that cover the full range of educational activities of teachers and use innovative approaches and technologies such as open science cloud services and computer modeling systems. The teachers' use of the AiiDA cloud-oriented environment provides access to a number of additional services, such as lecture recordings and interviews on specific aspects and results of groundbreaking research; collections of short training courses on selected topics conducted by renowned lecturers from around the world. The author notes that for biology and chemistry teachers, it would be appropriate to familiarize themselves with the 3DBIONOTES-WS web application (online process modeling), designed for adding biochemical and biomedical information to structural models by scientists from around the world. The author focuses the attention of teachers, in particular natural sciences and mathematics teachers, on the use of competency tasks and computer modeling systems in the educational process. The research provides examples of tasks detailing both areas of long-term teacher development and methodological aspects of new technologies application in educational practice.

Library Services

In this paper we study the changes in academic library services inspired by the Open Science movement and especially the changes prompted from Open Data as a founding part of Open Science. We argue that academic libraries face the even bigger challenges for accommodating and providing support for Open Big Data composed from existing raw data sets and new massive sets generated from data driven research. Ensuring the veracity of Open Big Data is a complex problem dominated by data science. For academic libraries, that challenge triggers not only the expansion of traditional library services, but also leads to adoption of a set of new roles and responsibilities. That includes, but is not limited to development of the supporting models for Research Data Management, providing Data Management Plan assistance, expanding the qualifications of library personnel toward data science literacy, integration of the library services into research and educational process by taking part in research grants and many others. We outline several approaches taken by some academic libraries and by libraries at the City University of New York (CUNY) to meet necessities imposed by doing research and education with Open Big Data – from changes in libraries’ administrative structure, changes in personnel qualifications and duties, leading the interdisciplinary advisory groups, to active collaboration in principal projects.
