Abstract
Declining library budgets, growing user expectations, technological innovations, and
the globaization of information have forced the library and information (LI)
professionals to share their precious resources via networks. As a response to these
developments, there is a transition from stand alone libraries to library and
information networks, infomediaries to infoliterate end-users, and print-based
publications to digital documents. The professional competencies are falling short in
managing access to the web-based digital documents. In this context, an effort has
been made in this paper to raise a few pertinent issues and discuss the implications of
the web-based digital documents for the LI profession.
