<p>E-Government is the use of technology, predominantly the Internet, as a means to deliver government services to citizens, businesses and other entities. This survey briefly explores how public libraries and librarians help users access government information (i.e., benefits information), complete government forms online (i.e., apply for benefits), or provide any other assistance that enables users to interact with online government (E-Government) services and resources.<br>
