    Abstract
    Academic libraries have been on the leading edge in the provision of services, navigation aids, and user training for the Internet and the emerging National Research and Education Network (NREN). Yet empirical research and synthesis of librarians' experience with electronic networking is scarce. Reports selected findings from a recently completed study that examined the impact of the national networked environment on academic libraries. Its goals was to investigate the roles of academic libraries and librarians in the national networking context. Summarizes the study activities and key issues and findings from data analysis

    Abstract
    Reports results of an evaluation of the Online at PA Libraries project (Autumn 1996 to Autumn 1997), funded by Bell Atlantic and administered by the Pennsylvania Dept. of Education's Office of Commonwealth Libraries and the Schuylkill Intermediate Unit, which has had a significant impact on the provision of Internet based information services and resources to Pennsylvania public library users. 4 surveys were conducted: a survey to assess the participating libraries' expectations concerning the project; a user survey to determine user satisfaction, demographic and overall project and Internet assessment; and 2 training evaluation surveys conducted at the start and at the follow up stage of the project. The project has provided a statewide demonstration of what can be done to improve quickly and significantly the statewide public library services; to connect public libraries to the Internet and provide a range of new services and resources to their communities; and to 'junpstart' libraries, librarians and citizens into the global networked society

    Abstract
    Reports results of a questionnaire survey of 1996 Internet and WWW activity in UK public libraries, undertaken by the UK Office for Library and Information Networking (UKOLN) on behalt of the Library and Information Commission, and compares the results with a similar survey of public libraries in the USA. The range of issues investigated include: number of libraries connected to the Internet; how the libraries are connected; availability of public access. Concludes that the UK id generally far behind the USA in the development of Internet services and levels of connectivity. The 1996 results for the UK are similar to those obtained in the 1994 USA survey. There is a high reliance on dial up as a connection methos, limited amounts of public access and general low connectivity. However, a noticeable amount of enthudiasm about the Internet was observed in the respondents and a great deal of planning was taking place. In addition, the higher level of public libraries Internet involvement in the USA did not always indicate that high levels of Internet services are being offered to the public. Lists recommended levels of Internet services that should be considered
