Features: At the turn of the century, the rapid development of digital and network technologies injected new vitality into the traditional library and information science field, which was in a low ebb. With the help of modern technological achievements, library and information institutions gained greater opportunities to showcase their value and expand their space. However, in the information age, new challenges emerged: the change in the production and communication methods of literature and information made library and information institutions no longer the sole source for readers or users to obtain relevant literature and materials. The limitations of technology itself and the issue of intellectual property rights protection challenged the inherent functions of library and information institutions in preserving and providing literature. How should library and information institutions position themselves during the transformation period? Under the trend of global economic integration, how can library and information institutions play a role in strengthening enterprises' awareness of intellectual property protection, improving international competitiveness, and enhancing the overall quality of the nation to strengthen comprehensive national strength through information and knowledge services? How should professional education in the field of library and information science be reformed to cultivate a professional workforce that meets the demands of the era? The book explores these issues from different perspectives in a relatively in-depth manner.
