Abstract
This paper emphasizes the significance, elements and functionality of library portals, the
role of librarian as selector and organizer of information on the web. The portal offers the
user the ease of searching many sources at once, integrating results from licensed resources
and local databases and bibliographical descriptions of digitized material. Equally, the
familiar portal interface is an option for searching databases that are unfamiliar to the
users. Librarians bring their expertise with content, their knowledge of copyright, their
commitment to customer service and their experience in creating customized web-based
information delivery systems.
