Evolution of Concept of Library Collections under the Impact of Electronic Environment

The article analyses the evolution of library collections concept in the last twenty years. It is demonstrated that the electronic environment allowed libraries to provide users with many documents, both electronic and print, which don’t belong to libraries. They may be licensed from commercial providers, accessed on the Internet public domain and stored in other libraries. This situation forces libraries to rethink the concept of library collections step by step and introduces the new types of library collections, such as licensed collections and shared collections. New concepts and corresponding new terms are being included into the national and international library standards.
