Using the Online Catalog as a Publishing Source in an Academic Institution

SUMMARY This article reports on the Digital Library Project in 1995 a! the Bern Dibner Library of Science and Technology at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn, New York. The project's goal was to deliver electronic information generated by faculty and/or university organizations through the online catalog, by providing a seamless link from a bibliographic record in the OPAC to the electronic item via the Internet. Catalysts for the project included the faculty's need to share and distribute electronic information and the library's need to reduce traffic at the Service Desk, where course materials were kept. Student can now access course-related material remotely, eliminating long lines at the Service Desk, and faculty can exchange electronic information on a secure network.
