Abstract

There are a myriad of challenges facing science and technology libraries as we move into the 21st century. Among the critical challenges facing Sci-Tech libraries (and actually all libraries) are: the need to perform detailed collection assessment and evaluation, particularly in regard to e-resource collections; the need to examine and provide appropriate public services; and the need to develop strategies for the adoption of new information technologies. This volumepresents twelve papers that address these key issues and attempt to provide both perspective and insight into these problems.
