 Parliamentary libraries that are upgrading their current systems or exploring new services can take advantage of a generational advance in the core systems used by libraries.   Library Management systems, Digital Library systems, Document Delivery systems and research services have all been transformed by web-based delivery of services.    Understanding the information needs and information seeking behavior of members and their assistants, parliamentary committees and other stakeholders is important in this context.   This section outlines core services that are enablers of information delivery in the Parliamentary Library.  The selection of these systems should be framed in an understanding of the role of the Parliamentary Library that is centred on the parliamentary needs as discussed in the previous chapter. Parliamentary libraries that are upgrading their current systems or exploring new services can take advantage of a generational advance in the core systems used by libraries.   Library Management systems, Digital Library systems, Document Delivery systems and research services have all been transformed by web-based delivery of services.    Understanding the information needs and information seeking behavior of members and their assistants, parliamentary committees and other stakeholders is important in this context.   This section outlines core services that are enablers of information delivery in the Parliamentary Library.  The selection of these systems should be framed in an understanding of the role of the Parliamentary Library that is centred on the parliamentary needs as discussed in the previous chapter.
