Libraries in the Digital Age (LIDA) is a biennial international conference that focuses on the challenging and rapidly transforming nature of libraries and information systems and services.

Alyssa Goodman gave this keynote talk describing the overall vision, plans, and ongoing work of the "Seamless Astronomy" group based at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

This talk was delivered to the Sage Bionetworks Commons Congress by Alyssa Goodman in April, 2011.  The goal was to very briefly explain the "Seamless Astronomy" approach to the group building up the "Sage" Commons.  The Sage Commons will be a "revolutionary accessible information platform to define the molecular basis of disease and guide the development of effective human therapeutics and diagnostics."
