The chaotic nature of the Internet is one of the axioms of today's
information
environment. Academic librarians have been heavily involved in developing
their own
websites of resources and links that will clarify and simplify the
information chaos.
Personalization software for library web pages is designed to allow users to
control
the content and presentation of information available on a website so
that it better fits his own individual needs and preferences.  Examples of
such
software are "My Yahoo" and "My Library."

Please join our virtual interactive discussion as John, Eric, and Paul
discuss issues
related to website personalization software and other issues related to
technological
means of making library electronic resources more user friendly.
