Using the Library's OPAC to Dynamically Generate Webpages for E-Journals

SUMMARY Electronic journals are being added to library collections at exponential rates. Kathryn Paul and Elena Romaniuk shared their experiences with the audience on how to provide electronic journal access to the users of their libraries. The workshop included a brief introduction of the University of Victoria and its libraries, the context of the project, its rationale, and a detailed explanation of the methodologies with emphases on planning, policies, processes, and systems. They then examined the challenges they faced and will still be facing. They concluded that their users loved the easy access to the electronic journals. An online demonstration was given at the end of the presentation.
