Today's libraries have the mission of educating society, and are intended to reflect social diversity as well as promote greater integration. Beyond presenting the status of how libraries are meeting this challenge today, this volume presents a scientifically founded analysis of current deficits, thereby suggesting starting points for more sustainable, better integrated library management.
