- The Swedish School for Library and Information Studies in Boras - changes and developments The change and development from a library school to a fully-fledged academic institute for teaching and research has been a major challenge for the Boras school during the 1990's. The Swedish School for Library and Information Studies in Boras now encompasses the Department for Library and Information Studies at Göteborg University including the Ph.D.-programme, which started there in 1993. The change entailed a revision of the curriculum and a new Master's programme that is currently producing more than 100 Master's theses a year. The new Ph.D. programme has already resulted in six Ph.D.s and a recent expansion from one to five chairs paves the way for future developments. The research profile and organization of the programme in four subdivisions cover the major areas of the field with some emphasis on information seeking and related areas. However there are still some areas where research activities are limited and many challenges are still awaiting. Areas under development within the school are information management, bibliometrics and knowledge organization. The labour market is quite good and a shortage of librarians and information specialists may well lie ahead, as retirements will increase during the next two decades.

- DECENTRALIZED MODELS FOR ONLINE LITERATURE RETRIEVAL — A FIELD EXPERIMENT — Online literature retrieval is offered to the academic users via a highly centralized model. In order to test the possibilities to decentralize online services a field experiment was carried out at six university departments. A few persons at each department were introduced to the basic management of literature retrieval and the supply of databases available to them. The interest for using the service was very high and most users were satisfied with the searches. However, many users had problems in making adequate formulations of their search questions. These difficulties were shown to be dependent on the amount of experience from literature retrieval and use of secondary sources as well as the level of education. In general the field experiment was successful both in terms of user saticfaction and the willingness to establish online service at the department level.
