The information systems technology is advancing at a frenetic pace. The challenges facing information security professionals are increasing day-by-day. The runaway growth of computer viruses and worms and the ongoing nuisance posed by malicious hackers and employees who exploit the security vulnerabilities of open network protocols make the tightness of library security system an issue of prime importance. Assuming that the goal of library provision will still be access to information, it makes sense to improve security at the same time as we strive to enhance and maintain free access. The present work attempts to provide an authoritative knowledge on diverse aspects of information security and safety in modern libraries. It attempts to take the mystery out of configuring information security solutions and provides new frame-works which the novice as well as library administrators can follow and adapt to their information environment. It will serve as an essential source book for librarians, infotech professionals, policy makers, academicians, teachers, students and all those involved in the security of information network channel.
