Information services provider Swets, Netherlands, has announced that www.librariesrevolution.com now contains contributions from over 70 of Asia’s most distinguished libraries and institutions. Launched in July of this year, Swets’ Libraries R-evolution project is a collaborative and informative partnership between Swets and the respected library community of Asia Pacific. By sharing and showcasing success stories through the website librariesrevolution.com, the goal is to promote the flexibility and sustainability of Asian libraries across the region.
Some of the notable libraries included are: The Peking University and Tsinghua University in China, The University of Hong Kong, The National University of Singapore and the Waseda University in Japan. Each institution has shared helpful tips, details and best practices on how these libraries can stay abreast of the changes occurring within the industry and make the most of their acquired library collections. The journey of these libraries are sure to inspire other libraries and institutions to partake in this new R-evolution.
The Libraries R-evolution project and website also commemorates Swets’110 year anniversary, outlining the company’s journey from a small scientific and antiquarian bookstore in Amsterdam 1901. Today, it claims to be a leading service and e-solutions provider for customers around the world.
