The information needs of library users have been increased enormously. Therefore the dissemination and access of information become the most important functions in modern library. In order to survive in the information age, library starts to evaluate its mission, objectives, services, staffing, organization, and management techniques. Library organization is one of the topics to draw the attention of library professionals. This paper is to study the theories of the library organization, system theory and library environment, human resources theory and its applications to library, as well as library organization and its internal and external environments ever since 1900. Also studied are the Changes and innovations already made by the library under the influence of external and internal environment in the past decade. This paper concludes that modem library has made some changes and innovations for its organization both in theory and in practice since 1980, parallel organization and flat organization are just two examples. Once the predicted electronic library and virtual library are coming into existence in the future, the library organization will be changed greatly, and information access rather than information holding will be the main function of library services. This paper is just a preliminary study of library organization in this aspect. The author do hope there will have more detailed studies about library organization that the library will be prosperous in the next century.en-USjournal articledoi:10.6182/jls.1994.9.001http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/190616/-1/o09-1.pdf
