Information Technologies and Collection Development

Abstract

Perhaps the most striking characteristic of today's information environment is the pace of technological innovation. The phenomenal increase in computer memory capacity and speed of access, and the development of ever more powerful but less expensive computer chips, stimulate creation of expanded applications. The changing nature of automated systems requires continuous adjustment to cycles of expanding, ever‐changing information systems.
