Publicly-supported community libraries are a critical component of the National information infrastructure (NII) initiative. This survey provides data about Internet connectivity for public libraries. 79 tables.
In 10 papers from a September 1990 conference sponsored by the Library of Congress Network Advisory Committee, experts on electronic networking among libraries discuss current issues, technology, goals for national information networking, governance and funding, and users and services. The conference's recommended resolutions for the delegates to the White House Conference on Library and Information Services, September 1991, and for further action by the Network Advisory Committee, are also included.

Addresses the public library community's need for practical cost information related to Internet connectivity and services. It is not a "how-to" manual for connecting libraries to the Internet. The value of this study rests more with the development of cost models, worksheets, and cost categories that can assist public libraries to determine an appropriate type of Internet connectivity and service provision given the library's need. This study seeks to improve the knowledge base of information, not to offer a comprehensive treatment of the topic.
