| LibraryNet! |
| Canadian public libraries have been providing information,
education, and recreation to Canadians for over a century and a half.
Today they are defining new roles for themselves as economic incubators,
community development agents, distributors of electronic information,

encourage the growth of these new roles and to help Canadian libraries
connect to the information highway and to one another. This is a cooperative
venture on the part of Canada's public libraries, library jurisdictions
and agencies, librarians, and Industry Canada. http://ln-rb.ic.gc.ca/e/index.html |
