In the modern era of information explosion that led to the development of interdisciplinary areas in various fields of S & T user requirements and expectations have risen dramatically. To meet this challenge, the library must be equipped with modern tools of information storage and retrieval, so that the right information is made available to the user at the right place at the right time.
found with the advent of computers and the Internet transform the infrastructure for information leading to the generation of digital libraries and electronic.
