One of the essential duties of any educational institution is to link the educational process with the development requirements. Thus, the success of any educational system is achieved by responding to the necessary needs of the community that required the development. Any follower to the information services could see clearly the rapid development of technologies in improving the libraries, especially computers and information systems. The libraries are considered as one of the most important centers of education. Also, the libraries of any university must reflect the latest modem means of education to become a center for information sources. Hence, this study shows the extent of the progress of international and Arabic libraries through the use of modern technologies and the shift from traditional paper-based methods in providing its services to the electronic methods. After viewing different experiences of libraries, such as the University of Jordan, the Library of Alexandria, the University of Technology in Baghdad, the University of Cornfield in the United Kingdom and the British Library public, the survey has a number of conclusions and recommendations. The libraries have a prominent role in the developed countries to continue with the information revolution, and to reach the community in fast, accurate way and throughout the day without stopping.
