Despite the development of technical means, the processes associated with the search for complete and accurate scientific information in a huge number of data sources are becoming more complicated. To reach a new level in the use of information processing technologies, first of all, a transition to a semantically
meaningful representation is necessary for scientific knowledge extracted from information in a digital environment. In modern conditions, characterized by multidisciplinary research, the desired effect can be achieved by developing universal approaches to the storage and presentation of scientific knowledge. These approaches are reflected in the concept of the Common Digital Space of Scientific Knowledge. The paper presents an overview of the basic concepts in this area, which are used both to represent the elements of space and to provide access to them not only for humans, but also for software agents. Semantic libraries are considered as tools for constructing the knowledge space.
