Abstract

Offers a particular forecast of library networking in coming years, within the context of individual libraries. Foresees library networking as being completely dependent on computer client/server approaches; library patrons or staff should be able to go to a single workstation and access all resources local or remotely as needed; systems will be patron friendly, and there will be less dependence on the printed word. Asserts that library networking will be based on a wireless environment that will facilitate highly mobile computing and access to information services.
