Libraries have evolved dramatically as a result of the growing emphasis on information technology. Developments in the way libraries gather materials, organise their resources, and deliver services are among the developments. With these changes in the library environment, it is critical for library and information science workers to be conversant with a variety of abilities. Librarians with excellent technology abilities are in higher demand in the digital era.
