Abstract
Big data can be considered as the beginning of a new era. With the effects of the big data while world is in a big transition, it is not seen as possible to keep libraries out of this big transition. Big data is evaluated for libraries under two basic chapters within the scope of this study: i. Place of big data in libraries` collection ii. Usage of big data in the library operations and services, and improvements of these operations and services In this transition, university libraries have a lot of responsibilities due to their structure and they should lead this transition. However it is very clear that big data is a new concept for libraries and in literature there are not many researches on the execution of big data in the libraries. This situation results in a negative environment in which occupation experts (data managers and librarians) neither have the awareness on the importance of the subject nor incentive and desire to develop themselves. To understand the level of the mentioned awareness, a research was conducted with the graduates of the occupation who works in Ankara University Library. In this conduct, a small survey was made with 28 librarians to measure the level of their information on big data and then, just after the survey, an informative presentation about big data was made in which 22 librarians attended. After the presentation another survey was conducted to these 22 librarians to understand whether awareness on big data were raised on not. Based on our study, it can be said that librarians who attended the presentation statistically significantly increased their knowledge on the basic levels of big data. Based on these results, it can be also seen how quickly librarians get adapt to the big data which may be also thought as a natural consequences of their occupation. Thus big data should be considered in the occupation of the librarianship and it can be said that education curriculums about big data would have positive contribution to libraries.
