Abstract

Surveys the immediate background to, and establishment of, the European Commission supported European Public Information Centres (EPICs) operating in UK public libraries. Current structures for support and cooperation are outlined, and the author suggests that, although the network has been popular and successful, EPICs face challenges for the future, including external networking and internal cultural change.
