How are your library and its patrons adjusting to the challenges of the digital age?This essential book examines how digital formats are changing libraries today, from the perspectives of librarians, vendors, and library users. Editor Sul Lee is an internationally recognized leader in library administration and management.

- Will libraries stop buying print materials in favor of digital resources?
- Will libraries convert to only digital products or will they have to buy both electronic and print formats?
