Book excerpt: In order to collect information on online bibliographic searching activities in smaller academic libraries, a survey was conducted in December 1982 of 252 college and university libraries located in public and private institutions with enrollments of between 1,000 and 5,000 students. An 88.5% response rate was achieved. It was found that 65% of the respondents offered online search services; fewer than half of the librarians in each institution were involved in online searching; 73% of the libraries providing online services charged or planned to charge faculty and students for these services; DIALOG was by far the most frequently used vendor; the average direct cost per search varied widely; and the connect time for most libraries (74%) averaged less than 15 minutes. This publication briefly outlines the survey methodology and findings; a sample questionnaire with responses noted is provided. Also presented are copies of online searching policy statements, promotional items, search request forms, transaction log forms, billing forms, evaluation forms, and statistical report forms from over 50 institutions.

Book excerpt: Changes occurring in college libraries as a result of automation are described, along with financial issues in library management, personnel issues, and changing patterns of collection development and resource sharing. New developments include online public access catalogs, computer-generated bibliographies, online search systems, and computerized library networks that enable sharing of cataloging records. To promote the conversion to modern information services, library directors need managerial, leadership, and fund-raising skills. In addition to a growing number of academic librarians who have been given faculty status, the library school curriculum and the credentials needed by beginning librarians have changed in response to modern developments. As a result of the tremendous growth in the volume and costs of publications, campus libraries have been unable to maintain previous levels of collection development. Examples of resource sharing, which addresses this difficulty, are identified. Also considered are new formats in library collections (e.g., video discs), and the problem of preserving library materials. Recommendations concerning planning, financial support of libraries, and cooperative library ventures are included.
