Integrating Digital Resources Into A Traditional University Research Library, Fiona C. Coutinho, Caroline M. Eastman, Christopher B. Hare, Robert F. Skinder

Faculty and Staff Publications

We describe the ongoing Electronic Library Project at the University of South Carolina. The goal of this project is the integration of digital resources within a traditional university research library. The first step was the development of an Electronic Science Library (ESL), followed by an Electronic Academic Library (EAL) which includes non-science subjects.
