Program: electronic library and information systems publishes material on all aspects of the management and use of information technology in libraries and archives, museums and galleries, information centres, and the information industry generally. The automation of library and information services, the storage and retrieval of all forms of information, and the delivery of information to end users are primary interests. Program is also concerned with database design and management; techniques for storing and distributing information; networking and communications technology; the Internet; user interface design; the procurement of systems; user training and support; and system evaluation. While Program's emphasis is on practical applications (and their costs), reviews of emerging technologies and of research and development in relevant fields are also welcomed.
