Abstract

The Core Text Project at the Library, National University of Ireland Maynooth is a SIF-funded project that aims to give 24/7 access to as much core full-text student reading material as possible. It seeks to address two specific expectations: 1) that there are enough copies of essential reading materials in the Library to provide for the individual needs of each student 2) that access to essential reading material is tailored to suit the specific requirements of distance and part-time students This article outlines the project from conception to implementation, evaluates progress to date and explores its future development into a mainstream service.
