- Background knowledge: The new economy plays a significant role and affects the future development of academic libraries and information services internationally and in Greece. The non tangible essence of the investments in the new economy as well as the rapid introduction of novel information technologies portrays new rules for the management of quality in academic libraries. Nowadays, more than ever the intangible assets represent a significant percentage of the total investments. Aim: The aim of the paper is two-folded a. definition and taxonomy of intangible assets for academic libraries and information services, b. analysis of specific indicative intangible assets based employing data from the annual reports of MOPAB for the academic libraries in Greece. Method: Qualitative analysis based on the relevant literature for the definition and categorization of intangible assets in academic libraries and information services and thereafter secondary analysis of data. Results/ conclusion: The present study led the researchers to infer five suggestions. The first three concern LIS directors seeking to understand the value of the distinct type of intangibles (i.e. human capital – structural capital – relational capital) in academic libraries. The fourth suggestion regards the interrelation of library investments to both specific intangible assets and certain quality / efficiency indicators. The last suggestion calls MOPAB for the augmentation of the groups of indicators with new performance indicators based on intangibles and the new economy.
