New Automation Technology for Acquisitions and Collection Development, Hardback Book

New Automation Technology for Acquisitions and Collection Development Hardback

Edited by Rosann Bazirjian

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Library and Information Science series

Hardback

Description

This book, first published in 1995, describes how automation is changing the face of acquisitions as librarians know it and making the future uncertain yet exciting.

It documents how libraries have increasingly moved to powerful, second-generation interfaceable or integrated systems that can control all aspects of library operations.

The libraries presented as examples show that increasing user expectations, the siren call of cyberspace and network connectivity, and administrative faith in the savings to be obtained from electronic technical services continue to drive the migration to higher-level library management systems.
