New Jersey Institute of Technology professor to develop supersized virtual library
Imagine, with the single click of a mouse a smorgasbord of reference listings consolidated from public, university and on-line digital libraries. Such an indepth reference option will be coming your way soon thanks to a professor at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). Led by Michael Bieber, PhD, associate professor of information systems and co-director of the Collaborative Hypermedia Research Laboratory at NJIT, a group of information scientists and librarians received last month a total of more than $2 million in federal funding to develop computer software to create such a tool. "We're developing a supersized library," said Bieber. "Our meta information engine will automatically add links within Web pages to related documents and services, customized to your current task."
