Justification of information services

Abstract

Of all the speakers today, I think I have the easiest task, since I have to set the stage for justifying information services faced with the widespread problems with which you must be familiar—otherwise you would not be here. It is not for me to conjure up the ideal system, the short or long‐term solution, or the methods which will overcome the sometimes intangible problems. It is merely for me to state some typical problems as a framework for the thoughts of the day. I cannot even promise to mention them all, and hope your discussion will correct my omissions.
