    Abstract
    Chapter 7 of 'University libraries and scholarly communication', a study prepared for the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The transition from a print technology to an electronic technology has led to fundamental changes in how the nature of information is perceived. The characteristics of print have had profoundly important implications for the storage and dissemination of information, for the role publishers play in the process of scholarly communication, and for the acquisitions practices of research libraries. The information technologies of the late 20th century compel a rethink of the most basic assumptions underlying the process of research and scholarly communication

    Abstract
    Issue devoted to a study of the American university research library which was written with the support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and was published in 1992 as 'University libraries and scholarly communication' by the Association of Research Libraries for the Foundation. Part 1 of the study traces the history of research library development from the early 20th century into the 1990s, while part 2 discusses the impact the technology and electronic information resources on the traditional library
