Abstract

This article describes the vision of the Association of Research Libraries for a Scholars Portal, a single point of access to quality and library‐vetted information. The current status of the project to trial the system is described, with comments on important issues that have arisen, such as the degree of potential overlap in resources required between participating libraries.
