High Tech/High Touch; Academic Libraries Respond to Change in the Behavioral Sciences.

Anthes, Susan H.

Behavioral & Social Sciences Librarian, v5 n1 p53-65 Fall 1985

Examines changes in behavioral science education in light of four trends identified in John Naisbitt's "Megatrends": high tech/high touch phenomenon; continuing need to reconceptualize purposes; growth of self-help skills; and concern with more and effective networking. Appropriate library responses to these trends are suggested. An 18-item bibliography is included. (EJS)
