Title If you build it will they come? Services will make the difference in a portal
Date 2005-10
Description Abstract: Identifying and adding services to a library portal will add to its long term success in a market that pits libraries against commercial vendors like Google and Amazon.com. The current focus on portals has been on selecting collections and developing the basic functionality of the website. We look at the added features needed in order to make this a product that is attractive to today's researcher.
