UNEX
UNEX is a dissemination project, that brings together fdi and UCD as partners.
It aims to use the results of the DALI and UNIverse projects within the Russian Academic Library Sector, focusing on the Russian Academy of Sciences Library in St Petersburg (RASL), to promote technology transfer in the area of Telematics for libraries within Eastern European countries.
The main outputs of the project will be: ·
-
installation, configuration and support of UNIverse software at Russian Academy of Science Library (St. Petersburg), including national customisation;
-
setting up an 'EU On-line' room where readers can obtain instant electronic access to European electronic library data with assistance from a help desk;
-
training and consultations for personnel of Digital Media department of RASL, as well as other NIS libraries;
-
catalogue automation, i.e., conversion of a relatively small subset of RASL catalogue into electronic form and providing global electronic access to it through the UNIverse system for demonstration, technology demonstration and promotion purposes;
-
a conference, workshops and publications targeted at promotion of the above mentioned advanced information and communications technologies among NIS researchers, students and librarians.
