Information management and associated technologies are a driving force of organizational change in higher education. The academic library can be either a proactive participant or a reactive victim of organizational change. The purpose of this monograph is to emphasize the former through the examination of the transformation process and the political, managerial, service, and technological issues that must be addressed by the academic library. The chapters that follow are "based" on papers delivered at the 1992 Computers in Libraries Conference. The chapters do not consitute a simple republication of the presentations. The conference papers described themes and concepts; the chapters are more focused and expand on the concepts and arguments originally presented. The chapters are arranged in three sections, each expanding upon information and concepts provided in former sections. The first part provides definitions for concepts that are utilized throughout the subsequent sections. The definitions are presented through historical perspectives of development and include information, the management of information, the information revolution, the process of transformation and the chief information officer concept. The second section, "Information Management in Higher Education" has three chapters that provide a transition from the conepts presented in the first section to the impact of information management and organizational change on the academic library. These three chapters focus on organizational change occuring in higher education and the role that information management is playing in that "transformation". The process of transformation is clarified as it relates to postsecondary institutions and the role of Chief Information Officer in the transformation process is presented. The progression from information management to transformation to the Chief Information Officer to the academic library ends the final chapter. The third section, "The impact on the Academic Library" addresses the political, managerial, service and technological impacts of the concepts discussed in the previous sections. The three chapters in this section focus on the level of involvement and the impact on the library as an organization.
