The presentation demonstrates cooperative approaches in the field of digital library
development in Germany from the perspective of Bochum University Library. It demonstrates
the integrated OPAC, the regional union catalog, a search engine for national/international
catalog resources, solutions for accessing international periodicals titles in printed and in
electronic form, a database of databases, a regional digital library and further relevant
national initiatives. The paper argues for teaching information competence, for integrating
e-learning and e-publishing into the library’s information architecture and for international
cooperation to further enhance information products and services. |
