Libraries on the Web Available to Purchase

What motivates a library to go on the World Wide Web in the first place? What can it do once it's there? What problems have to be overcome and what advantages are there? Three librarians from very different parts of the world told us of their experiences. Vic Elliott is University Librarian at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand (http://www.vuw.ac.nz/library); Yosef Branse is Systems Librarian at University of Haifa Library, Israel (http://www‐lib.haifa.ac.il); Lim‐Yeo Pin Pin is leader of the Web team at the National University of Singapore Library (http://www.nus.sg).
