Abstract
The advances in ICTs have decisively changed the method of operation in the library and learning environment which has in turn transited into information society. This transition has metamorphosed the world today into a fast and massive transformation in social, cultural, political and economic terms. This transformation process affects almost all organizational structures. One of the structures that is affected of this process is the library with its culturally and socially organizational characteristics as they collect, preserve and disseminate the information and eventually aim to meet the information needs of the society trough massive adoption of ICT. The aim of this study is to examine how libraries adopt ICT in the creation of an information society and to give information on the status of the libraries in the
information society.
