Abstract

The Internet, an electronic computer network that connects millions of computers around the world, has taken the international library community by strom. The library community is excited about the Internet because it offers a real, concrete step toward creating desktop access to information, the so-called 'electronic libraries' that librarians have been talking about for years. The momentum toward creating electronic libraries will accelerate with the introduction of initiatives to create 'information superhighways' capable of bringing tremendous amounts of information directly to the home. The most well-known initiative is NREN, the National Research and Education Network, in the United States
