Informational Infastructure

With the growing amounts and sources of information both new and historic, the Informational infrastructure has been under drastic changes and modifications to accommodate these newly developed and still developing methods for archiving retrieving and transferring information. The article about the Information Infrastructure elaborated on some of the aspects that make the transfer of numerous media possible to create the infrastructure. Some of the stated uses of the Infrastructure by the United States are the print industry, the telephone, radio, television, the database industry, and libraries. These sources all provide access to huge amounts of information and knowledge. With the developments in technology information the infrastructure has become a stronger infrastructure with much more information accessible through various methods. Some problems that librarians and moderators of this infrastructure are running in to are things like copyright protection, open-access to information, and the protection of citizen's rights.
