- Abstract
- If the current means of communication are considered to be essential tools for a democracy then it is a very different understanding of democracy to that of the ancient Greeks and claims that the information highways are not factors of democratization because they favour only those who have access to them. Emphasizes however that the Internet represents an enormous opportunity for librarians that they ignore at their peril in that it offers flexibility, instantaneity, affordability and knows no boundaries. Recommends that librarians and information specialists leran how communications technology can serve them while emphasizing that the information they require is frequently to be found in their own collections
