商品簡介
In the new knowledge environment in which the function of libraries as information centers is growing rapidly, how are librarians coping? Li (library and information science, Wayne State University) takes a look at this important aspect of how libraries are adapting to the new technologies. She uses a sociological model to study the various perceptions librarians have of the World Wide Web and how they have changed over the past ten years. She concludes that most librarians are comfortable with the Internet, despite some reservations concerning the dissemination of misinformation. The first half of the book is a history of the Web and an explanation of the methods used; the second half provides results and her conclusions.
