Yesterday’s uncertain prediction on libraries of the future is today’s immutable truth. That, today’s Libraries are “wall-less” is indisputable. i.e. all resources of libraries are on digital form accessible through networking communication to remote areas. Present librarians require skills on handling and managing digital resources and creating institutional databases as well as maintaining all e-resources in helpful way to satisfy the user and providing their seeking information in the least time possible.
