Information technology has created an interactive and expansive quality to information
not experienced previously thus contributing to information becoming a primary
commodity in the global market today including the academic world. Academic
librarians in academic libraries are challenged to rethink the way they define the
vocation oflibrarianship due to the impact of information technology to their profession.
Thus they are exploring new opportunities and implement change in establishing new
roles, responsibilities, skills and abilities in providing quality services to the community
they serve. Their evolving roles as they move into the 21st century will be determined by
the actions, decisions taken and examples set today. It is vital for librarians to
"embrace" change to ensure the continual growth of their profession in the university.
