Over the past few years, libraries throughout the world have been in a state of transformation as a result of the impact of information technology. No area of the library has remained untouched. The impact on collections, services, staff, and facilities has had major ramifications on budgets, planning, and training. Thus the concept of Digital Library has come which focus on access and service not on buildings and volume. Libraries should support users in their searching and acquiring of information and their organization will reflect services rather than physical location.
Technology, law and economics are all becoming more important for libraries requiring new expertise in library staff. Perhaps the most important issues for the long term will be the ability of libraries to co-operate in the delivery of the new services.

Rapid change in today's education environment puts student under constant pressure and mounting demands. Students need to know more and do more, frequently learning as they go. Support your students in navigating the speed of change by providing quick and ready access to trusted industry knowledge.

Academic/Library Market

The Challenge

In today's rapidly changing climate, acquiring, building and maintaining collections to support your academic environment can be daunting and risky. With so many areas of study and burgeoning fields of expertise, your student population needs anytime, anywhere access to an ever expanding, changing, and always current resource.

The Problem

• Building, maintaining and refreshing collections to encompass the variety of subject areas can easily exceed tight library budgets, forcing a constraint on book acquisitions severely restricting the depth and breadth of collection coverage.
• Having to limit and, therefore, select the 'right' titles for your library collections from the thousands that are available unavoidably restricts subject coverage and overlooks the needs of some of your patron population.
• Predicting your collection's shelf life by monitoring currency and obsolescence is time-consuming, unending and unrealistic.
• Keeping titles on the shelves and readily available requires multiple copy purchases.
  Ensuring your students have access whenever they need it can mean extending the library's hours of service.
• Integrating new solutions into existing ones is costly and time-consuming.
