Synopsis

The delivery of library services to users based at a distance from the physical library is a topic of growing interest around the world. Many students are undertaking distance education and the library support they need may not be available locally. At the same time the IT-based "virtual library" is becoming a reality, opening up new possibilites for delivering services. This collection brings together the papers of the 1997 Libraries Without Walls Conference which address the principal strategic issues and best practice based on international, regional and sectoral approaches, arising from the provision of library services to distant users. Topics include: the Web learning environment; document delivery; supporting adult learners - the Sunderland experience; key human factors in operationalizing services to remote users; libraries without walls; running for regional library provision in the Antwerp library network; the provision of library services for lifelong learners and distance educators; building library support for distance learning through collaboration; library services to off-campus students - an Australian perspective; and the experience of UK postgraduate learning.
