Progetto Biblio MIME

Abstract

The Document Delivery Service (DDS) allows libraries to exchange papers from scientific serials or other types of documents, on the basis of user requests. An Internet-based Document Delivery Service has been developed within the framework of the CNR (Italian National Research Council) Project BiblioMIME, in order to take advantage of new Internet technologies and promote co-operation among CNR and Italian university libraries. Adopting these technologies changes the traditional organisation of DDS and may drastically reduce costs and delivery times. This Report describes the project activities (year 2001)
