The article reviews the role and place of electronic bibliographic information, provided online, in the structure of modern informational society. There is discussed the question of reduction of libraries’ involvement in search and retrieval of information, required for readers’ professional activities and personal development. The Internet ability is assumed to reduce the role or even entirely replace the libraries not only in providing information on printed and electronic publications, but also in providing publications themselves to the users. One of the solutions to this problem may be an innovative approach to the information bibliographic activities of various types of libraries. To take a worthy place in the system of information search and retrieval, the libraries need to turn into the actual mediator between the readers and the book. To implement this goal the libraries need to not only timely post in open access the high quality information bibliographic resources and provide online services, but to make them comfortable and attractive to contemporary users. On the example of the Russian State Library there are discussed the possibilities of creation of electronic bibliographic resources and, primarily, the new ways of their representation in Internet. It is shown that the use of online technologies in creation of the bibliographic information allows the bibliographer to communicate directly with readers, getting feedback, considering the requests, discussing the topics, interesting for the users. There are determined the prospects of joining the efforts of libraries on creation and reflection in Internet of bibliographic resources, available in common access.
