Abstrakt

Digital repositories of various types of material will change the role of the library in the process of information dissemination. The creation of distributed digital resources, which are virtually constructed from holdings existing at different institutions, will lead to an ever increasing interoperability of library resources. Different types of institutional roles in the provision of information for the cultural heritage sector result from this. It may, but need not longer, be combined within one institutional framework, can also lead to completely new institutional specializations however.
