Abstract: Vast amounts of data about the Earth and man's activities are being entered into digital spatial data bases. These have been structured so thet they are described in terms of their exact geographic position on the Earth. The data, in the form of points, lines, or polygons, can descrive geology, soils, water, forest cover, or population statistics. To use this data, geographic information systems (GIS) are being developed to collect, inventory manage, and display the spatially referenced data sets, Because the library has been the centre for published information through time and is the one place where all disciplines can truly live together, people will expect to find spatial data there also. The biggest problem establishing this type of library system may be in just getting approval to start.

Abstract

The challenge facing the library profession is not only to learn how to identify information needs, but also to create new services and reshape existing service delivery patterns around them. Provides a brief examination of the literature of information needs and information seeking behaviour. Examines problems arising from meeting information needs in an electronic age, and describes a few societal changes that directly affect the way libraries attempt to meet information needs. Emphasises that the challenge of the 1990s is to design research that will help librarians and the information systems with which they work to anticipate a wide range of information needs.

Abstract

Community information systems originated with the field of social services but was soon adapted by public libraries in the 60s. Because it is a recent development in library services, there have been a wide range of interpretations as public libraries have attempted to incorporate these services into the more traditional library services. Presents a selective overview of the history of community information services and a review of current developments in the field.
