The Joint Library Card Project The system vendors and

the National Library Received funding from

Norwegian Archive,Library and Museum Authority

Project period: 2004 Testing of clients and

server: 2005 Launch: October 2005

The main aim of the project is to develop a joint library card for personal library users in Norway.

A national borrower database will be established in order to achieve this aim

Goals for Ask the Library– Biblioteksvar (Ask the Library) is a digital reference service whereby patrons

can communicate with library personnel via chat, SMS or e-mail/web form. – Our goal is to build and run a national digital reference service. The project is

the first of its kind in Norway, both in regard to the combined technologies in a single interface, and the fact that so many institutions cooperate to provide a single digital service.

– By participating in the project, each individual library or institution pledges their work time without economic compensation. The pay-back comes in the form of an increased expertise in reference work. In addition to giving personnel new experiences in the form of digital reference, especially chat, participating institutions have found that participation gives them new insight into the traditional, "in person" reference work. The result is that more and more personnel are actively using electronic resources in their reference work.

NDL working group for licensing

The group will try to show how the Norwegian libraries more efficiently can organize and expand their license agreements.

A survey has been conducted, on how the license agreements are today and how the libraries would like them to be.
