Electronic information for The Learning City: a cross‐sectoral approach to the provision of electronic journals in Sunderland

Abstract

Lifelong learning is high on the Government's agenda. More than at any other time, there is a need for libraries from all sectors to work together, in particular to exploit the potential of the National Grid for Learning to make information and learning accessible to many more people. In this article, Vilas Edwards describes the distinctive partnership between library services in the City of Sunderland to support learning communities, focusing on IT developments and in particular, the provision of a City‐wide electronic journals service.
