Information Science Information Systems Library Research Library Schools Library Science Library Services National Libraries Use Studies To increase a deep continuous stream of library research, the following steps are recommended: (1) expand present research activities in library schools, libraries, and professional associations; (2) add evaluative measures to library "demonstrations" set up as a part of state plans for library development; (3) sponsor experimental programs of library service on a state-wide or multi-state basis with evaluative techniques built in and (4) organize a large-scale program of research aimed at evaluation of library services. It is also recommended that a Federal Institute of Library and Information Science be established within the Office of the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare. The proposed institute would have several responsibilities: (1) conduct research into the changing needs of information users and the effectiveness of libraries and information systems meeting these needs, (2) undertake research, development, and prototype application of all types of new technology as they relate to library and information science activities and (3) assume the system engineering and technical direction responsibilities for the design and implementation of an integrated national library information system.
