Studies to provide an on-line, 24 hour public library, chaired by an assemblage

provide library services to a target audience estimated to number 1/4 of the
entire American population by the end of the century.
The Internet Public Library is scheduled to go on-line in March 1995. Among the
first services will be on-line reference; youth services; user education; and
professional services for librarians.
