Abstract:
The primary goal of a library is to provide access to information resources to the users. However, as
libraries move from paper to electronic medium, providing access to resources over a network safety has
become very complicated. Security of assets or resources in a library network should be achieved without
any compromise. But, if users are not protected from easy and unauthorized access to the library network
the stored information may be at risk. So, the network must be protected by creating some security
policies. Libraries will be able to protect their resources by making sure that users will use only those
resources for which they have been granted access. The paper describes how to assist the library network
professionals in the process of users’ security management.
