The Role of Librarians in Implementing an Automated Information System
Abstract
Implementing the United Technologies Online Catalog (UTOC) was greatly facilitated by the ability of each librarian involved in the process to develop a variety of skills, including behavioral, information, managerial, technical, or some combination of these. To understand how these roles evolved, creating a new and greater set of responsibilities for the company's librarians, one must first understand its library system and UTOC itself; this project may provide clues to how other large‐scale automated information projects will affect librarian responsibilities.
