The traditional task of libraries
- to facilitate access to information - is still valid in the
Internet world. Since technical progress has changed how libraries
do their work, many of them are planning and developing Web sites
in order to fullfil their functions. This paper examines the process
involved in creating a library-related WWW site. A general overview
of the steps that led to the redesigning of the National- and
University Library Site is given; issues related to content, design,
organisation and future development are outlined. Since the Internet
provides access to a vast array of mostly unfiltered information,
questions of how libraries can implement value-added services
by selecting and evaluating remote Web resources and link them
to the own Site are reflected.
