Preface

In the network society, information resources are the basic elements of productivity. As a strategic resource, information resources play an important role in economic construction and social development. The library is one of the main distribution centers for information resources and an important part of the information industry. It should adapt to the impact of new technology applications and changes in social information needs, and develop information resources in depth. By reorganizing and collating information resources to provide high-level, high-quality, high-intelligence and diversified information products, libraries should become the resources needed by specific users to meet the diversified and multi-level needs of information resources for social development. This has been the responsibility of contemporary library managers.

Information is the main strategic resource and valuable asset of the network society. In the fierce international competition, information resources have become the focus of competition among countries, and it is the embodiment of international competitive advantage. The development and construction of information resources has become an important driving force for social and economic development. Compared with developed countries, China's information resource development and utilization level is still very low, about 2~3 orders of magnitude lower. Compared with the actual needs of Chinese users, there are still many gaps and problems to be solved.
