>Possibly the greatest challenge facing academic libraries today
>is how to successfully provide electronic services.  How do we
>cope with students who use the library at a distance?  How do we
>help them to develop information skills?  How do we staff the
>electronic enquiry desk?  And how do we preserve our stock?
>
>If one institution can answer these questions, that one
>institution must be the Open University.  For this timely event,
>OU staff will provide practical tips on all aspects of
>developing an electronic library.
