Abstract

That technology will play an increasing role in shaping our information service options appears without doubts. The development of new technology continues at an ever-accelerating rate, and since the library and information field is faced with the potential application of hardware, software, and networks initially designed for other purposes and for other uses, it is extremely difficult for us to try to shape or predict either the specific direction or even the rate of change. What we can perhaps predict, and what we can certainly hope to influence, is the extent to which information usage through our libraries and other formal information facilities will become a self-service environment at the expense of information intermediaries, or perhaps the extent to which a new profession concerned less with mechanisms and more with response to service needs for information and answers rather than documents may flourish
