contents The Library, the Researcher, and Computerized Information at Stanford University; A Report to the Director of Libraries. Ferguson, Douglas College Libraries Computers Information Needs Information Systems Library Role Library Services This report is intended to aid the library at Stanford University in determining: (1) How it should respond to faculty and student need to know about computer-based information systems; (2) If the library has a role in supporting awareness of, and access to information about computerized files on campus; and (3) If the library has a role in planning services centering around large data bases that will likely soon be available on campus. The author concludes that: (1) There is evidence of a need for information about computer-based information systems among faculty and students; (2) There is a sizable number of computerized files or data collections on the campus; (3) The library is the appropriate place to respond to the need for information about computer-based information systems; (4) The library has unique experience and skills that would be valuable in promoting awareness of and access to computerized files; and (5) It is to be university's advantage for the library to maintain active involvement with the groups that are developing a variety of computer-based information services on campus. It is recommended that the library augment, and actively support, services for answering requests about computer-based information systems. (Author/SJ)
