Text author: Наташа Васиљевић

This paper considers terminological questions concerning web and library portals and presents their different classifications. Libraries opted for active participation in the creation of reliable information sources at the age of e-science, and it was crucial for portals to be seen as key segment of academic librarianship. The realization of library portals must be preceeded by detailed analysis, but evaluation and refining are also seen as obligatory.

A selection of active portals is presented as the illustration and starting point for the prediction of possible development in the nearest future.
