- Abstract
- Networking is the decisive element in the electronic publishing revolution. Internet covers 10.000 networks and is used by 3 million computers. The scientists need it because of the flood of topical publications. Using electronic publishing, authors can reach the reader directly: publishers, booksellers and libraries may still be needed to cover other forms of publishing and to ensure free access to information for all

- Abstract
- The disintermediation that will inevitably result from the increased electronic publication of specialized scholarly information affords an excellent opportunity for one of the traditional intermediaries (e.g., libraries, publishers) to assume responsibilities previously held by other intermediaries. Members of the academy should use this opportunity to take back the responsibility for a significant portion of the specialized scholarly publishing that has, in the traditional environment, been placed in the hands of external publishers. The most imposing impediment to such a reappropriation by the academy derives from the inability of institutions to cooperate with each other. If new attitudes could be created within the academy to circumvent that obstruction, then an academy-based process of scholarly information exchange would finally be feasible. One effective model for such a new form of scholarly publishing would be to establish separate domains, or designated channels, for individual disciplines.

- Abstract
- The increased interconnectivity of academic library resources has led to a growth in the use of electronic media and diminishing dependence on print. An expanding number of remote users and the growth of distance education have led to increased expectations for access. Whether they call themselves digital, virtual or electronic, academic libraries force the challenge of preparing for the millenium through technology. Discusses the role of academic libraries and librarians; cooperation between the library and the computer centre; leading and managing libraries; measurement of library effectiveness; financial resources; staffing; diversity; customer service; reference services; library instruction; library design for technology; the Internet; library automation; integrated systems; cooperative computer networks; document delivery; collection management; digitization and electronic publishing; and cooperation between libraries; vendors and publishing

- Abstract
- Although assisting and advising have always been central to the role of the reference librarian, the nature of reference work has evolved as a result of the proliferation of electronic resources and their impact on information access. One consequence has been the growing importance of library training in reference work. Considers the place of cooperative teaching, electronic teaching, innovative reference services, reference services outside the library, networking technologies, organization of electronic information and organizational ethos

- Reports on a survey of ARL (Ass. of Research Libraries) members in the USA in 1994, which sought to find out the electronic reference services that are offered by these libraries and how the services affect reference staff, the expectations of users, and user instruction. The services covered include CD-ROM, intermediary online searching, end user online (e.g. FirstSearch), tape loaded databases and user access to the Internet, including electronic mail facilities. Highlights the additional workload the provision of these services involves, and the sometimes unrealistic expectations of users especially with regard to Internet resources

- Abstract
- Developments in information technology have led to changes in the mode of delivery of library services, and in the perceptions of the role of librarians in the information-seeking context. In particular, the proliferation of electronic resources has led to the emergence of new service paradigms and new roles for librarians. The Gateway Library at Penn State University (PSU) is an electronic library in transition, with new technology-based services evolving to address the ever growing and changing needs of the academic community. It facilitates access to and navigation of electronic resources in an integrated technology environment.

- Abstract
- Selecting electronic resources requires both a policy statement to guide collection development and management and procedures to manage the process of selecting and handling these resources. Both policy and procedures must be crafted in response to local priorities, resources, limitations, and organizational structure. This paper examines issues that should be addressed when developing local procedures. Particular emphasis is given to preparing a mechanism to guide selection. One possible model - a decision-making matrix to guide selection between various media and modes of information delivery - is explored.

- Abstract
- With the establishment of the WWW as a standard information tool in academic libraries, there is a greater demand for research assistance than ever before. Reference questions involve more teaching time given the number of interfaces clients confront as they navigate the book catalogue, electronic databases, and the WWW. Librarians require expert knowledge of multiple search strategies as well as the ability to teach others how to apply them effectively. Outlines hoe the WWW can function as a desktop publishing system, revitalize subject pathfinders and 'how to' guides, and promote the invention of interactive library tutorials. A Web site presenting design ideas accompanies this article at: http://stauffer.queensu.ca/inforef/tutorials/cla/clahome.htm

- Abstract
- This paper highlights some of the significant findings from author's PhD: "Factors affecting the end-use of electronic databases in public libraries." Public libraries have a wide range of different types of users who, unlike academic or special library users, are not necessarily information-trained (see Coles, 1998). Whereas the academic, special library user may have specific information needs that can be met by electronic sources, public library users do not necessarily have such specific information needs that can easily be identified and met. Most user surveys have tended to concentrate on the searching and retrieval aspect of information seeking behaviour, whereas this study's user survey focused more on how people perceived and related to Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). It was not how people searched a particular electronic source, in this case CD-ROM, that was of prime interest but rather whether or not people actually used them at all and the reasons why people did or did not use electronic media. There were several reasons the study looked at CD-ROM specifically. Firstly, CD-ROM is a well established technology, most people should be familiar with CD-ROM/multimedia. Secondly, CD-ROM was, at the start of the study, the only open access electronic media widely available in public libraries. As well as examining why public library users chose to use electronic sources, the paper looks at the types of CD-ROM databases used both in the library and in general Also examined are what sort of searches users carried out. Where appropriate some of the problems inherent in studying end-users in public libraries and the difficulty in getting reliable data, are discussed. Several methods were used to collect the data. I wished to avoid limiting research to a small sample of library sites, the aim was to be as broad in scope as possible. There were two main groups of people 1 wished to look at: non-users as well as CD-ROM users

- Abstract
- Asserts that although the library landscape may shift a great deal, reference librarians will still be in the business of negotiating with users and helping them find what they need. The electronic environment may cause a shift in the tools librarians use and the speed in which they change; it may also allow them to look more closely at their users' needs and deliver what they request more quickly and in a wider variety of forms

- Abstract
- The Brandeis University main library, Waltham, MA, reference service scored highly on the Wisconsin-Ohio Reference Evaluation Programme (WOREP). Reports on a site visit to Brandeis carried out in 1996 to determine how its reference library performance differs from the perfromance of the typical academic reference deparrtment in the areas covered by the WOREP data. Findings indicate that intensive use of electronic resources, a good reference collection, good architecture, administrative support and adequate time provided by the consultation model contributed to service quality

There was a response rate of 68 per cent, Compares results surveys carried out in 1991 and 1994. The survey covered: numbers of computers access options (intermediary, end user online, CD-ROM locally loaded databases or those accessible through the library catalogue and the Internet. There is a trend away from print resources, particularly indexing and abstracting materials, and away from CD-ROM LANs and local loading of databases towards remote online resources

- Abstract
- NewsAgent for Libraries is one of the projects funded by the eLib programme in the UK. Following a brief historical account of the original ideas behind the project, describes the main stages in developing the project: which aims to create a user configurable electronic news and current awareness service for library and information professionals with a mixture of content streams, including metadata. Users' interests are specified by profiles which are then matched with incoming records so that users are alerted by electronic mail of items of potential interest. Examples of creating profiles and of some of the 'input feeds' in the project are given as well as an example of the use of the Dublic Core metadata format for describing resources covered in NewsAgent
