IFLA Journal. May 2000

Abstract

This issue of the IFLA Journal focuses on evolving roles and practices in library and information science, with emphasis on discourse analysis, digital access, and library service innovation. Articles explore the professional identity of librarians, public library usage patterns, and the integration of digital information systems. Case studies from the UK, Uganda, and Scandinavia offer diverse perspectives on user behavior, technological challenges, and institutional change. The issue underscores the importance of critical reflection, technological adaptation, and user-centered approaches in shaping the future of libraries within an increasingly digital and information-driven global context.
