Abstract

This paper reports on the current uptake of mobile technologies by academic libraries and attempts to identify key issues including drivers of success and restraining factors affecting implementation of mobile technologies. It is based on an investigation comprised of literature search, a survey of members of the Council of Australian University Librarians (CAUL) to establish current practice in academic libraries in Australia and New Zealand and investigative visits to academic libraries in USA, Singapore and Hong Kong.
