…der Titel des diesjährigen EUSIDIC Spring Meeting, 18.-19. April 2005, in Brüssel: This is a time of serious debates about the buying power of libraries and information centres, all with mostly shrinking budgets, while their university boards and management, as well as governments, are questioning the role of the publishers and their access, archiving and pricing policies. Libraries and information services are shaping new services and products to their changing user community, which consists more and more of ‚Internet and Google‘ literate users in a global setting at remote spots.
