Academic Libraries Higher Education Information Science Information Seeking Library Administration Library Planning Long Range Planning Online Searching Online Systems Position Papers Research Libraries Technological Advancement In fall 1984, the Georgia Institute of Technology administration and library staff began planning for Library 2000, a project aimed at creating a showcase library to demonstrate the application of the latest information technology in an academic and research environment. The purposes of Library 2000 include: increasing awareness of students, faculty, staff, other libraries, and clients outside the institute about the availability of information and data; enhancing available information resources through the use of online services and optical disks; creating personalized information systems using artificial intelligence to provide up-to-date literature in researchers' areas of interest; and demonstrating that the application of existing technology can enhance information finding efficiency and achieve greater user productivity. Assumptions and goals were developed in a series of brain-storming sessions dealing with the institute's future, technological trends, and library users and clients. Some of the major assumptions about the future include: users and clients will demand increasing amounts of information in numeric, textual, and bibliographic form; the technology to create Library 2000 exists today; books will continue to exist, especially in the humanities and social sciences; some books, particularly reference books, will be replaced by optical disks or online services; Georgia Tech is in an unique position to lead in the application of information technology; and Georgia Tech people are helping make the history of technology.
