- Abstract
- Defines digital libraries and discusses the effects of new technology on librarians. Examines the different viewpoints of librarians and information technologists on digital libraries. Describes the development of a digital library at the National Drug Intelligence Center, USA, which was carried out in collaboration with information technology experts. The system is based on Web enabled search technology to find information, data visualization and data mining to visualize it and use of SGML as an information standard to store it

- Abstract
- The form in which knowledge is described and encapsulated has a major impact on the design of libraries and the functions performed within them. New technology and the logocentric, practicentric and democentric elements of the information infrastructure have created profound changes compelling the flexible design of libraries. The book of the 17th century, television in the 20th century, and perhaps the Internet in the 21st century, open the door to self education with little economic discrimination. New roles for libraries are emerging that require flexibility in building design for moving collections, services, functions, and equipment; restructuring staff organizations, introducing new services associated with new technology; eliminating unnecessary or unaffordable services; and housing other institutional departments within the structure of the 'new' library

- Abstract
- References to virtual libraries, virtual technology, virtual reality and the Information Superhighway fill technology and library journals, conference programmes, and the popular press. Discusses various definitions of the virtual library and observes that what has so far taken place in academic libraries is merely modernization and automation. To move beyond this stage to a transformation of the academic library and its services new strategies are required, including a reengineering of organizational structures and processes. But ransformation cannot occur in isolation and collaboration and cooperation must reach beyond individual departments, libraries, and campuses, and include commercial as well as academic interests. Suggests how a transformed academic library of the future might function in terms of the physical library; the library's services; organizational structure and personnel; and library networks. 4 potential network models are examined

Discusses 2 trends that are having a fundamental impact on libraries: lifelong learning and the shift from teaching to learning. Presents concepts of academic and public libraries of the future, where culture, learning and research will be fostered, and where most of the competencies of librarians and information professionals will become more rather than less needed, because information handling skills will be of prime importance

- Abstract
- In the monastic library of the Middle Ages, the librarian was essentially a curator, a preserver of collections. For most of history libarians were little more than custodians. The idea of a librarian as a provider of services rather than a collector or preserver of materials, did not emerge until late in the 19th century. Computer and telecommunications technologies have revolutionized the library and greatly expanded the horizons of the librarian. Discusses the ways in which technology has affected the library profession and discusses the role of the librarian in the future. The librarian will increasingly become an information intermediary or information consultant and some will be knowledge engineers involved in the design and construction of information systems and in electronic publishing

- Abstract
- In their rush to embrace the new technologies that have facilitated remote access to catalogues and document delivery services and are now ushering in the virtual library, librarians and users are unwittingly undermining the institution of the library. Suggests that the library is becoming invisible and its larger purposes risk being lost. At the same time, takes issue with the view that the great libraries of america are being 'trashed' by the rush towards technology and addresses some of the issues raised; such as how to balance the obligation to collect with the need to provide access, how to better serve the scholarly community, and how to enhance the library in the face of its declining visibility. Concludes by urging librarians, library users and funding authorities to discuss anew how the library may serve the intellectual needs of diverse users

- Abstract
- The concept of a digital library has been stimulated by recent advances in computing technology. These developments hold the promise of transforming libraries into interactive centres of learning and research by virtue of inexpensive digital storage, easy-to-use search engines, and powerful computing hardware. However, libraries are handicapped in their move to digital collections by enormous legal problems in securing rights to much of the current literature. Solutions to this dilemma are not on the immediate horizon, but eventually will include changes in the current copyright law and technological arrangements to protect the interests of the owners of intellectual property. Suggests that librarians might find a more valuable role not in getting information to an electronic state, but in being its organizers and facilitators

- Abstract
- Presents views on the general theme of the advent of a future that may eliminate libraries. Describes the negative effects that the Information Age may bring and presents a vision in which the Age of Cyberspace might well rescue many developed and developing countries. Full, functional literacy might be achieved worldwide by means of the new information technology. Humanity could be liberated from ignorance through developments in communications and learning via the Cyberspace. Universal participation in democracy and human civilization may be made possible and there may be a global renaissance whereby all societies and individuals will take advantage of the technological advances, while avoiding losing their own authentic cultures and learning other faits, doctrines and cultural values in a spirit of tolerance and harmony

- Abstract
- Digital image formats are now seen not only as feasible alternatives to print and microfilm formats for traditional preservation purposes, but also as the technology bearing the portential for unlimited access and distribution. Examines the requirements for browsing and exploration in the digital library of the future; and whether the open bookshelf model of a classified physical collection is suitable for the universal virtual library or whether new models of explanation are needed

- Abstract
- Suggests that the public library system in America is unique among nations for universal accessibility and openness to knowledge at community level. Suggests 4 features are distinctive: continuous expansion of the body of knowledge; knowledge accessibility in a free society; libraries as 'temples of pluralism', and simultaneously a unifying force in communal relations. Ideals are threatened by the information flood generated by new technology, with its repercussions on the communal functions of libraries. The Library of Congress's National Digital Library aims at a leadership role in the new electronic environment
