From Books To Binary: Migrating From A Traditional Library To An Electronic Information Center, Antoinette Paris Powell

Library Presentations

The opening of the W. T. Young library at the University of Kentucky provides a unique opportunity for the College of Agriculture and the library. Most of the agricultural print materials will be housed in the new library and the 10,000 square feet that now houses the Agriculture Library will be turned into the Agricultural Information Center (AIC). The AIC is described as a corporate information center supporting the academic enterprise. This presentation will chronicle the migration, including the involvement of the faculty, the physical planning and the re-engineering of the staff to move into this dynamic environment.
