Thrcat or opportunity'!Catalogs, and greatly facilitate interlibrary lending and other resource sharing activities
When I was invited to give this talk, I was ofTered two subjects, one of which was given the title «The Future of Library Services in the Light of Technological Innovations», which is the topic I chose
I find this title to be highly significant because it implies that it is the available technology that determines what library services will look like in the future. This implication - that technological capabilities determine the characteristics of the institution rather than the institution adopting or adapting technology to meet its own goals and objectives- is one that seems highly prevalent in the library profession
Summary
Catalogs, and greatly facilitate interlibrary lending and other resource sharing activities. Dealing with the academic library environment, Pat Molholt (2), a prominent academic librarian, puts the emphasis of her paper on technological developments She argues that the increasing power and sophistication of information technologies, which threaten the existence of the «traditional» library, could in the future make the institution and the profession of greater value than ever before. She agrees with Penniman that changes need to occur in the profession: The technologies of networking and distrihuted information resources, o.f nonlinear programs accommodating rich linking among information resources.
