This work skeptically explores the notion that the internet will soon obviate any need for traditional print-based academic libraries. It makes a case for the library's staying power in the face of technological advancements (television, microfilm, and CD-ROM's were all once predicted as the contemporary library's heir-apparent), and devotes individual chapters to the pitfalls and prevarications of popular search engines, e-books, and the mass digitization of traditional print material.

The Spanish Jesuit Francisco Suarez (1548-1617) was an eminent philosopher and theologian whose Disputationes Metaphysicae was first published in Spain in 1597 and was widely studied throughout Europe during the seventeenth century. The Disputationes Metaphysicae had a great influence on the development of early modern philosophy and on such well-known figures as Descartes and Leibniz. This is the first time that Disputations 17, 18, and 19 have been translated into English. The Metaphysical Disputations provide an excellent philosophical introduction to the medieval Aristotelian discussion of efficient causality. The work constitutes a synthesis of monumental proportions: problematic issues are lucidly delineated and the various arguments are laid out in depth. Disputations 17, 18, and 19 deal explicitly with such issues as the nature of causality, the types of efficient causes, the prerequisites for causal action, causal contingency, human free choice, and chance.

Library standardization plays a vital role in effectively managing and optimizing library resources and services. It involves the establishment and adoption of common frameworks, guidelines, and practices within the library domain, aiming to ensure consistency, interoperability, and collaboration among libraries. By implementing uniform standards, libraries can enhance the process of resource discovery, facilitate seamless information exchange, and provide users with effortless access to information. Library standardization encompasses several key areas, including metadata standards, cataloging rules, classification systems, and technology interoperability. Metadata standards provide a consistent structure and format for describing library resources, enabling efficient resource discovery and sharing. Cataloging rules offer guidelines for uniform bibliographic description and organization, simplifying cataloging and retrieval of materials. Classification systems provide standardized schemes for organizing resources by subject, enhancing their discoverability. Additionally, ensuring interoperability among library systems and technologies is crucial for seamless integration and information exchange.
