The Evolving Virtual Library
Visions and Case Studies
Edited by Laverna M. Saunders
A transformation is taking place in all types of libraries.
The concept of access to remote resources that supplement
or substitute for items owned
locally has
become more acceptable. The virtual library is the phenomenon of the international
system of electronic networks that enables a user at a computer terminal to
search bibliographic citations, databases, electronic publications, and other
types
of information in digital format. The chapters contained in this volume address
many of the practical issues involved in developing
the virtual library.
