Abstract:
Academic libraries have to provide very flexible services focused more on individualized and distant
contact with their clients. To answer new demands they not only have to move their services and
resources to the Web but also should consider the different cultural and educational backgrounds of
library users. In this context this article tries to analyze and compare the contents and usability of six
Indian Institute Management library Web sites and presents conclusions regarding the basic functions
they perform. Library Web sites were evaluated according to a detailed checklist prepared specially
for this purpose.
