    Abstract
    Attempts to synthesize the findings of American writers of disparate viewpoints on the social phenomena of virtual environments. Travel in virtual communities is always accompanied by tension between the real and the virtual. By observing user behaviour, the authors under review are attempting to discover what happens on networks; how a community can form from a database; how rules, conventions and new cultures are formed; and the effects of virtual environments on personality

    Abstract
    Discusses the likely future for libraries in an environment of increasing availability of information in electronic form via networks, particularly the Internet. The concept of the library will survive and thrive, but that the library as a place is an endangered species, and that librarians are facing the greatest challenge in a century

    Abstract
    Considers the possible potential for service development in public libraries offered by the Internet and describes the traditional models of network access and their lack of relevance to public libraries. Describes 2 current research projects currently being undertaken by public libraries to assess the value of the Internet to their services; ITPOINT, a project being conducted at Chelmsley Wood Library, Solihull, UK; and CLIP, the Croydon Libraries Internet peoject. Presents a range of new service paradigms and suggests that public libraries will become even more central to people's lives than they are today

    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
    Although the 'information poor' are already present, the arrival of a much greater gap between the 'information poor' and 'information rich' is forecast in the book: Sovereign individual, by J.D. Davidson and W. Rees-Mogg. Concludes that, if the events forecast in the book come about, there will not be an information society but an unacceptable society

    Abstract
    Addresses the technical and policy issues in the development of an international infrastructure for the flow of information by studying the emerging national information infrastructures in 6 post communist countries in Central and Eastern Europe. The study consisted of interviews with over 300 library managers, computing network administrators, government policy makers and other information professionals conducted in 1993 and 1994 in Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia, plus a 1994 mail survey of research libraries in these countries. After presenting the principles under which the G-7 leading industrialized countries have agreed to collaborate on constructing a Global Information Infrastructure (GII), presents examples from the survey on how the GII pronciples might be addressed. Results of the longitudinal study were reported at greater length in the Proceedings of the 58th Meeting of the ASIS, 1995, S.27-34

    Abstract
    This volume is the first book coherently summarizing the current issues in digital libraries research, design and management. It presents, in a homogeneous way, thoroughly revised versions of 15 papers accepted for the First International Workshop on Digital Libraries, DL '94, held at Rutgers University in May 1994; in addition there are two introductory chapters provided by the volume editors, as well as a comprehensive bibliography listing 262 entries. Besides introductory aspects, the topics addressed are administration and management, information retrieval and hypertext, classification and indexing, and prototypes and applications. The volume is intended for researchers and design professionals in the field, as well as for experts from libraries administration and scientific publishing.

    Abstract
    Outlines a practical programme for setting up a low-cost dogotal library server using an electronic mail interface. This approach can be used by any small library, non-profit group or corporation with a volume of information it wishes to make available to the public at minimal cost. Suggests hardware and software configurations and recommends a possible upgrade path. Discusses the reasons for preferring the Linux adaptation of UNIX for the platform for this application. Recommends a mail transport agent and outlines mail server programs available. Provides a bibliography which includes all online and printed references necessary to obtain and configure the software discussed

    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
    CyberLib is the vision of a library whose essential functions, objects and services are offered in an artificial created environment. Making available different work environments that meet the individual user's needs is a very special characteristic of the capacity of CyberLib. Every vision has to be checked for its economic feasibility. How can CyberLib charge its users for its services with the clear target of making a profit and thus enter an open and measurable competition with other CyberLib in order to create a calculable and transparent information market? The paper will discuss different possibilities, such as automomous profit centers, the coexistence of conventional information sources and CyberLib and other forms of financing, e.g. by means of advertising

    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
