Description:... "Information Management (IM) is a crucial job for the library professionals in the new era. Library professionals are now being challenged by the new environment which demands changes in their styles, attitude and skills towards information handling. The traditional aproaches to information processing and organisation are undergoing transformation due to rapid advances in the area of information technologies, electronic resources and telecommunication. Information Technology has tremendously changed the role of library to information centre and Librarian to Information Manager." "This book helps the library professionals to better understand how to manage the information in the new environment. The book would be a valuable resource for the librarians, academics and professionals involved with managing information. It would also be immensely useful for students pursuing master degrees and doctoral work in the area of information management. The book is an edited book, which would be a compilation of papers in different areas of information management."--BOOK JACKET.
