They are endowed with the rich resources to meet the requirement of their users. Libraries are not mere the storehouse of literature they are also the fountains of knowledge. Quality of teaching learning and research of any organisation largely depends upon the potential of a library to meet the expectations and requirements of its users. Special libraries came into existence at the dawn of the 20 century. Explosion in the growth of scientific and technical literature and paradigm shift in the access and use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) have posed serious challenge to the special libraries in terms of their collection information management services and harnessing of ICT to deliver effective and efficient services. With the advent and use of ICT the very nature of library and reference services has undergone a change. The present book is an analysis of problems relating to the collections and services of special libraries in the present period based on a survey of libraries and users perceptions. The analysis includes library collections services and application of information technology to manage the information resources in Scientific and Technical (S and T) libraries and to deliver high caliber services to the scientists engineers and technologists engaged in research work. The book examines the parameters of effectiveness and use of S and T libraries. On the basis of findings it offers suggestions for the improvement of library collections strengthening of library services and harnessing of ICT. The book is definitely a source of reference to develop libraries in a systematic and well planned manner. This is an earnest endeavour and the researchers and information professionals will find this book as an asset and valuable source for the acquisition of resources extension of services and facilities in the libraries of highly scientific and technical organisations. 518 pp. N° de réf. du vendeur 63348
