Abstract

CDROM technology, though inherently part and parcel of computer technology, is considered separately in regard to library/information automation in African libraries. Library automation is a much more complex and expensive affair while the use of CDROM is a fairly straightforward computer application to a library environment, hence its popularity in many types of African libraries. CDROM can be regarded as the fastest growing information technology (IT) in African libraries today, but what is its future there?
