mixed material bibliography London Library Association 1997

288 p. : refs., tabs., index ; 24 cm. The focus of this book is on how and why libraries and information centers are finding it necessary to change direction and diversify in order to adapt to the threats and challenges posed by the internet, consumer online, interactive television services and the like – in other words, how they will face up to the information society. The objective of this book is to take libraries into the new millennium and see what impact today’s changing world would have on them at that time. The reader is thus presented with an eclectic collection of individual papers giving diverse views and ideas on how various types of library might evolve and be managed in the future and how people might get their information and knowledge. The book is aimed at senior library and information service managers and decision makers and covers issues and topics related to decentralizing the librarian. The book is more than just a collection of chapters on electronic or digital libraries at the turn of the century.
