Publishers are rethinking their role and taking a fresh look at how they can meet the needs of customers. Universities, libraries and publishers are all undergoing change brought about by technology and the Internet. As those seeking information expect rapid service, day and night, publishers must be innovative and adapt to the challenges ahead.
