Changing information needs in a transition period in Hungary: satisfying demands from different sources

Abstract

The changes taking place in Hungarian society, combined with technological innovation, have placed the Hungarian library system in permanent transition. In 1997, a new Cultural Act was enacted which included, among other things, public library provision. The traditional library service of ILL is also in transition and it is necessary to carry out an evaluation of the services of the requesting and supplying libraries which are still available. This paper addresses these questions and discusses ways of satisfying demands from different sources.
