  abstract  = {In the past academic libraries in Germany have been successfully undertaking joint endeavors toward a social and political definition of the knowledge society by cooperatively developing ways to provide information and increasing the digital forms of metadata and media. In doing so, they have unintentionally created the basis for a competitive playing field in which the individual library must establish strategic positions for success if it is to maintain viability and ensure continuous flow of resources. This article develops a framework for discussing such alternative and potentially successful strategies from the point of view of a university library},
