This digest discusses some of the major trends and issues found in a systematic content review of the professional literature of library and information science. Two "megatrends" are identified and discussed: (1) the concern for the impact of technology upon every facet of library work, in academic, school, public, and special libraries; and (2) the continued focus on the user and the impact of specific developments on the user. The digest also identifies and discusses the following trends: (1) the increasing demand for and provision of end-user access to computer-based information resources; (2) the increasing use of networks and telecommunications by all types of libraries; (3) the continued growth in computer-based information sources revolving around CD-ROM technology; (4) the increasing focus on collection management activities to enable libraries to better meet the general goals of institutions as well as the specific needs of users; (5) the increasing concern of libraries with reaching out to new user groups; and (6) libraries' focus on the promotion of literacy.
