Abstract

Recent years have witnessed many changes in medical information science and corporate librarians must reengineer the library for the new information age. Introduction of end-user oriented products, electronic journals and electronic document delivery systems are only a few examples of the changes. Greater access to information by clients, stemming from the ubiquitous spread of networking within organizations, will have a substantial impact on the traditional activities of librarians and/or information professionals. This concern results in growing pressures “inside” and “outside” the library profession to adopt the tools of management sciences. In this context, management of the library involves providing resources and cost-effective services to anticipate and meet increasing user needs.
