Lee, Meihua And Others Academic Libraries Change Agents Comparative Analysis Futures (of Society) Higher Education Information Systems Information Technology Leaders Librarian Attitudes Library Surveys Online Systems Optical Data Disks This research examines change agents' and opinion leaders' perceptions of CD-ROMs, online databases, and print sources in the academic library environment. The change agents and opinion leaders are librarians who advocate and influence the purchase decisions regarding computerized information systems. From a survey of librarians' perceived advantages of CD-ROM, online, and print sources and a comparison of the findings to the literature, it is evident that CD-ROM surpasses both online and print sources in terms of cost, ease of use, speed, convenience, compatibility, and testability. CD-ROM may possibly be the most adopted information system in libraries for the future. (Contains 17 references.) (Author) |
