Abstract

This article concerns information and communications technology (ICT) developments in Italian libraries with special reference to library networks and digital co‐operation initiatives. Italy has in recent years been heavily committed towards modernising public services and to updating its economic infrastructure and education system to cope with emerging challenges. This paper sketches a context in which specific questions are set, and provides a brief overview of the recent history of the use of ICT in Italian libraries.
