ABSTRACT

College libraries, through a combination of forces have made unprecedented strides in the development of access to information resources and in offering services to help students and faculty make greater use of these resources. In so doing, college libraries have become more critical to the success of the host institution. They are now poised to build on the advancements of the past 30 years to respond to the environmental changes and user expectations and to meet the challenges of being even more integral to the academic program.
