The
Evolving Virtual Library: Visions and Case Studies
Edited by Laverna M. Saunders A transformation is taking place in all types of libraries. The concept of access to remote resources that supplement or substitute for items owned locally has become more acceptable.

The chapters contained in this volume address many of the practical issues involved in developing the virtual library. Copyright 1996 Second Printing 1998/154 pp/hardbound ISBN 1-57387-013-7 $39.50 |
