TY - JOUR AB - Information technology as a term is now firmly established in the minds of not only professional groups and the commercial and industrial world but in the public mind. This process has been hastened by the enormous boost to publicity which has resulted from the emerging IT82 campaign. The diversity of the campaign is itself bewildering and is an indication of the pervasiveness of the new technology upon society as a whole. The term ‘information technology’, inadequate as it may be, cannot be ignored and librarians face the challenge of translating it into meaningful goals for their respective institutions.
