Abstract
We live in an age in which decisions made about information access today will have a profound impact on the libraries and librarians of tomorrow. Emerging new developments in information and communication technologies are already affecting the ways we organize work, seek information and develop innovations. Emerging hypertext and hypermedia systems promise to further support new levels of human creativity through explicitly linking related facts and ideas. Project development, too, requires the evolution of new working relationships between librarians, programmers and other team members. Such changes can best occur in the context of nontraditional organizational structures which nurture human creativity and innovativeness among its members.
