Abstract:

The British Library Research and Innovation Centre's Digital Library Research Programme aims to help the library and information community formulate an appropriate and effective response to the challenge posed by the 'digital library'. It also seeks to address the issues raised by rapid technological change for library staff and users, and to assess its relevance for the information needs of the wider community. We believe that few greater challenges face libraries and information services today.

Note: Graham Jefcoate outlines the rationale of the British Library Research and Innovation Centre's Digital Library Research Programme. This article appears in the Web, and not the print, version of Ariadne.
