The level of training in the use of computers is varied. Half the sites possess a profile of Adult Learners. Sites in Spain and Portugal who participated in the survey do not provide CBT material. The level of information technology at each site is extremely varied, ranging from low specification 386 machines to networked PCs and OPACs. Internet services are available in most sites or are currently being developed.
All sites have access to television, primarily terrestrial, with some designated for staff use only.
All sites provide services to Adult Learners free of charge with the exception of Internet access. No library site participating in the survey pays copyright fees for providing services to users. Training Resources for training are, in the main, low or non-existent. Few sites have a training officer. Most sites, however, provide training to their staff in the use of information technology.
