AB As libraries and information services address the needs of
   users in an increasingly networked environment, there is a need
   for theoretical models to underpin research, development and
   practice. The characteristics and roles of traditional
   libraries and information services are described, and a variety
   of predictions about their future are examined. A number of
   recent models of the 'electronic' or 'digital' library are
   analysed, and the concept of the 'hybrid' library is described.
   On this basis a generic model of the library, using that term
   in its broadest sense, is developed. A number of application
   areas are identified.
