Abstract

Report of a programme on Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) at the American Library Association Conference, Chicago, June 1995. Contributions from various constituencies included the following points: a comparison between EDI developments in the USA and Europe; the importance and long-term benefits of EDI for both librarians and agents; the need for libraries to take a leadership position with regard to EDI implementation to ensure that policies and procedures are acceptable; the fact that EDI in the information services field in the UK is widely accepted by libraries, agents and system vendors; the impact of EDI implementation in industry; the role of the library systems vendors in introducing EDI; and the view that while EDIcertainly offers many efficiencies and economies of scale, the are many hurdles to be faced by library managers before it becomes a reality
