Providing Internet access for North Carolina’s libraries
Abstract
Outlines the efforts of the State Library of North Carolina to provide access to the Internet and to electronic information resources for libraries in the state. The major challenge of finding a cost‐effective alternative to its statewide network, which was terminated by a 1993 legislative mandate, has led to opportunities to provide better services and resources by switching public libraries to point‐to‐point protocol (PPP) accounts and by migrating the State library’s information resources to an Internet‐accessible workstation.
