Rapid advances in information technologies have
revolutionized the role of libraries. As a result, libraries face new
challenges, competition, demands, and expectations. Libraries are redesigning
services and information products to add value to their services and to satisfy
the changing information needs of the user community. Traditional libraries are
still handling largely printed materials that are expensive and bulky.
Information seekers are no longer satisfied with only printed materials. They
want to supplement the printed information with more dynamic electronic
resources. Demands for digital information are increasing
As a result of the new development and current needs, it is
imperative that we equip the staffs of higher institutions to cope with
challenges affecting e-libraries in higher institution.
