摘要：
This paper will discuss the opportunities offered by the digital era to improve the accessibility of marine information particularly for African libraries. It will focus on how these libraries might take benefits from external digital information and also how they could enhance the visibility and the use of their own resources via digital format. The presentation concludes with a review of some constraints faced by these libraries in the African context.
