Abstract
Over the last two decades, digitization of library material has become a popular method used in libraries for providing wider access to the digitized library material and its preservation. Libraries are under pressure to expand their holdings with library material in digital form and to design new library services to satisfy the increasing information needs of various library users such as scientists, educators, and students. Digitization of library material in possession of libraries is one of the methods of expanding library holdings. At this moment, there are very few digitization projects in academic libraries at the University of Zagreb. In order to increase this number, libraries should receive systematic support which would guarantee successful digitization of library material, libraries should receive better financial support, and also, librarians and other library staff should receive additional education if they want to participate actively in digitization projects. With the expansion of library holdings, libraries are given an opportunity to respond better to their users’ information needs.
