Wahlstrom Library Upgrades Computer System


Wahlstrom Library is in the process of implementing a new library integrated system called Voyager, which will streamline information retrieval and Internet linkage, according to University Librarian Karen R. Smiga. "The library is very excited to announce that we've begun implementing this new system. Voyager will provide Internet access to the library's catalogue as well as facilitate several other library functions," said Smiga.
The library has recently placed an order to acquire access to some 12,000 electronic books via netLibrary/NELINET.
