Abstract

This article describes the development of a ‘virtual library’ for all off campus users. One of the major imputes for the virutal library was so we could delivery our electronic resources to our new overseas campus. Three major goals were accomplished by the day the overseas campus opened. Many of our electronic resources were moved to WEB-based delivery, a proxy server was set up to authenticate off-campus users and allow use of the WEB delivered databases, and a Windows Terminal Server was set up to deliver CD-ROM based databases.
