Since the spread of COVID-19, conferences have been cancelled,
schools have closed, and libraries around the world are facing
difficult decisions on which services to offer and how, ranging
from minimal restrictions to full closures. Depending on the
country, state, or city, a government may have a different
approach, sometimes ordering the closure of all institutions,
others indicating that it's business as usual, and others simply
leaving decisions up to library directors. All libraries worldwide
have been affected, from university libraries to public library
systems and national libraries. Throughout these closures,
libraries continue to provide services to their communities, which
has led to an emerging area of research on library services, new
emerging technologies, and the advancements made to libraries
during this global health crisis. The Handbook of Research on
Library Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic consists of chapters that
contain essential library services and emerging research and
technology that evolved and/or has continued during the COVID-19
pandemic, as well as the challenges and opportunities that have
been undertaken as a result. The chapters provide in-depth
research, surveys, and information on areas such as remote working,
machine learning, data management, and the role of information
during COVID-19. This book is a valuable reference tool for
practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and
students who are interested in the current state of libraries
during a pandemic and the future outlook.
