Library Technology Team
1997 Project Schedule
This project involves the migration of the public-access workstations in the Divinity Library to a new operating environment. The previous environment included Windows 3.x, an interface using icons in the Windows Program Manager, and a CD-ROM server based on LanCD/FastCD. The new environment will use Windows NT as the operating environment, will continue to use Program Manager, and will use a Novell IntranetWare 4.11 server for CD-ROM applications. The CD-ROM discs for the Divinity will reside on magnetic drives of the LIBRARY2A IntranetWare server. The CD-ROM products made available on Divinity public stations include ATLA Religion Index, Catholic Periodicals Index, and Old Testament Abstracts.
We will install a small computer lab in the former Kessler office. This lab will consist initially of four computer stations that will offer the same resources as the other public stations in the Divinity Lobby plus some others. The lab will offer specialized resources such as The Dead Sea Scrolls, Bible Windows, TLG, and other, and will eventually offer other services to VDS/GDR students such as E-Mail and Word Processing.
