Popis: | Huge changes have been carried out in the procedures of production, transmission, and use of knowledge beyond traditional means such as printed books, journals, and serials. Enhancements in the area of electronic publications have produced other formats and possibilities of access. These changes require libraries to review their management patterns in order to include these new products. On the other hand, countries must consider information relevance for their planning, management, and development. In Latin America and the Caribbean, these tools are increasingly being purchased, despite financial and social restraints. Consequently, library managers should concentrate on this situation to become prepared to deal appropriately with this challenge. |
