Digital content products and technologies provider ebrary, US, has announced that Southwestern Oklahoma State University (SWOSU) has launched its digital repository using the company's hosted e-publishing services. Available online at http://site.ebrary.com/lib/swosudr, the publicly accessible site features the full run of SWOSU's historical yearbooks dating 1906-1993 and will soon include the archive of its student newspaper The Southwestern.
The purpose of the SWOSU Digital Repository is to make a full range of SWOSU historical documents freely available to the public. Among the documents that will soon be added is the 1651 edition of Nicholai Culpeper's A Physical Directory, which will be keyword searchable. The number of titles available through the site will continue to grow.
ebrary seeks to help libraries, publishers and other organisations disseminate information to end-users, while improving end-user research and document interaction. The company has developed a flexible e-content platform, which customers may use in a number of different, integrated capacities.
