Abstract:

This paper will look at visions of the digital library---visions from the past, present, and future. An important component of our vision today is for digital libraries in developing countries, for we believe that as far as the developing world is concerned digital libraries may be killer apps for computer technology. As for tomorrow's vision, we develop the theme of digital libraries that surround the user with information, information that is pertinent to what they are doing, and changes as they work to track the context of the tasks that are being undertaken
