Government Information Management in the 21st Century provides
librarians, information professionals, and government information
policy leaders with a comprehensive and authoritative
state-of-the-art review of current issues in government information
management with a global perspective. The widespread use of the
Internet to provide government information and services has altered
the landscape dramatically for those who organize, store, and
provide access to government content. Technical challenges include
digital preservation, authentication, security, and accessibility
for a diverse user base. Management challenges include changes to
costs, workflow, staff skills and resources, and user expectations.
Public policies based on distributed paper collections must also
change to address issues that are inherent to digital, networked,
public content; such issues include the maintenance of personal
privacy, re-use of government information, and the digital divide.
The authors in this timely book are practitioners, scholars, and
government officials. Together they provide an informed look at how
managing government information is being tested at a time of rapid
change. Part I addresses key issues for public, academic, and
government libraries in organizing and providing access to
government information. Part II features chapters on the diverse
information issues facing governments, such as managing Freedom of
Information requirements, opening government data to the public,
and deploying new online technologies.
