The concept of a library must be revised periodically, whenever the evolutionary process produces a truly transcendental change. The present is one such point in time. A new model for a university library is described, one that has emerged in response to two types of changes: those required by the information society and those needed for the development of a European Space for Higher Education (ESHE). In keeping with these requirements, a hybrid university library is now developing, whose management is based on the philosophy of globalization, the use of new information and communication technologies (ICTs), cooperation, and the quality of services provided.
