American libraries and the Internet: The social construction of Web appropriation and use

Journal Title: Webology - Year 2008, Vol 5, Issue 2

Abstract

One can hardly find any aspect of human life that has not been affected one way or another by the Internet. Most of the Internet’s impact is because of the changes it has brought about in the areas of communication and availability of information. Facilitating information availability and information communication are among core activities of libraries.
