| Summary: | This book presents a series of case studies from Systems Librarians all over the world. It shows how the profession has changed in recent years with the introduction of new web technologies services such as hosted databases that are supported by vendors rather than in-house as well as shifts in technology management to outside the library. New skill sets are constantly being added as Systems Librarians become much more versed in dealing with service providers outside the library as well as training and supporting their traditional constituencies. |
