- Abstract
- Today's changing society, characterized by continuing technological progress, and societal and economic changes, poses new challenges to libraries. The library has to move beyond its role of store house to be a dynamic and aggressive information provider of both its own country's information resources as well as being an effective node in the global information network providing access to global information. There is a need for global coalition building amongst libraries which will make possible the global linking of multimedia information toward an eventual global digital knowledge base. Presnets a conceptual scenario of the digital global library and considers how it can be achieved, barriers to its implementations, and content related problems

- Abstract
- Discusses the technological developments of recent years, particularly in the area of telecommunications, and argues that they have fundamentally changed the way we generate, collect, disseminate, share and use information, and have had considerable impact on the roles of many types of libraries. Suggests that each library has the potential to be a dynamic provider of existing multimedia resources, as well as as effective node of a global information network providing access to all global information. Focuses on the concept of the digital global library, and how libraries should work towards its development. Outlines a number of barriers to the global library and how the good and bad aspects of the information infrastructure impinge on these
