The Scholar's Workstation Project

Abstract

The product of the Scholar's Workstation Project is a single Web site that provides, through a consistent interface, a complete operating environment for the common tasks (information retrieval, communication and personal productivity) of the academic researcher. As well as providing links to a large number of local, national and international information sources (library OPACs, Internet search tools, gateway services, directories, software archives, etc), the site may be configured so that users may launch their own personal desktop applications (word processing, email, etc) or even access local CD‐ROM networks.
