Abstract

Reviews the literature of e-government deployment world-wide, focussing on two possible roles for public libraries in e-government. The first is a continuation of their traditional role of information provision and managing library transactions electronically and the second, a move to handling government business transactions as well. Identifies issues and implications for Australian public libraries, such as the impact of the digital divide, the use of intermediaries and the resourcing of e-government.
