ITIL Resources
The IT Infrastructure Library is the only consistent and comprehensive documentation of best practice for IT Service management. Used by many hundreds of organizations around the world, a whole ITIL philosophy has grown up around the guidance contained within the ITIL books.
ITIL consists of a series of books giving guidance on the provision of quality IT services, and on the accommodation and environmental facilities needed to support information technology. ITIL has been developed in recognition of organizations growing dependency on IT and embodies best practices for IT service management.
