Information technology has fundamentally changed the operation of library and information services. This book considers key issues in the use of information technology in record keeping, in library management and in information retrieval.
Library management systems are for maintaining records of the transactions associated with the operation of the library. Information retrieval covers text information management systems, CD-ROM and online access to external databases.
The book is divided into three sections. Section one is a brief introduction to computer systems. Section two examines information retrieval applications and section three reviews library management systems.
This standard student textbook offers a structured approach and identifies key issues in the application of information technology in libraries.
