AN ANALYSIS OF A VIRTUAL LIBRARY SYSTEM (CASE STUDY OF NATIONAL LIBRARY OF NIGERIA, ENUGU STATE)

ABSTRACT

The term virtual library is diffuse enough to be applied to a wide range of collections and organizations, but to be considered a virtual library, a virtual collection of information must be managed by and made accessible to a community of users. Thus, some web sites can be considered virtual libraries, but far from all. Many of the best known virtual libraries are older than the web including Project Perseus, Project Gutenberg, and ibiblio. Nevertheless, as a result of the development of the internet and its search potential, virtual libraries such as the European Library and the Library of Congress are now developing in a Web-based environment. Public, school and college libraries are also able to develop virtual download websites, featuring eBooks, audio books, music and video, through companies like OverDrive, Inc.

In this era, known as the “information age”, when new models of digital services are being introduced in research libraries, the need to translate broad applications in mind into useful products and services is deemed high. Hence, in this study, the author went beyond simply generating new knowledge - but of producing an artifact.
