Abstract

Providing electronic information to its patrons has become a common feature of many special libraries. Most of the library services are being provided electronically in developed countries. A case study of IPR Library is presented. It discusses how IPR library has taken the challenge of the new emerging technologies and increasing demands of its users by adopting electronic information sources and services and how it generates value added electronic information for its patrons. It also indicates how a small special library can be converted or convert into an electronic library.
