Cyprus Medical Libraries Project: international collaboration for electronic document delivery and full-text database development
Abstract
Through funding from the Middle East Cancer Consortium and a partnership with the Spencer S. Eccles Health Sciences Library at the University of Utah, medical libraries in Cyprus now have access to an electronic document delivery system and a full-text database of Cypriot cancer and health literature. Describes the process of establishing these services. Because access to current health literature is essential for quality health care, asserts that international cooperation and collaboration of this type should be encouraged and expanded. Points out that the benefit to the smaller library with limited funding is dramatic, while the impact on the larger library providing the service is minimal.
