PROJECT ELVYN - IMPLEMENTING AN ELECTRONIC JOURNAL

To investigate how to take an existing refereed, paper-based journal a nd produce a networked electronic version of it, a number of universit y libraries taking part in Project ELVYN have been building a variety of systems in conjunction with a publishing house. Here we detail the system developed for the Pilkington Library at Loughborough University of Technology, which has subsequently been used at a number of other sites in Europe. This system has been useful to the publishers, librar ians and users for gaining an insight into how electronic versions of paper journals may be provided.
