ICT for accessing Knowldege
|
Accessing the latest development knowledge is a key challenge for many researchers in developing and transition countries. Recognising these challenges, the Global Development Network and the British Library of Development Studies (BLDS) have teamed up to bring you theGDN/BLDS Document Delivery service to meet the information needs of research institutes in the South. The GDN/BLDS Document Delivery Service allows you to search the huge BLDS online catalogue of development related resources from your desktop, then request copies of articles you and your research colleagues need at the click of a button. A 'real-life' BLDS librarian will receive your request, then photocopy or scan the article or book chapter you need and will send it to you via post or email. The costs of delivering the documents are covered by GDN so there are no costs to you. The BLDS collection is a unique resource with extensive Southern coverage. BLDS holds Europe's largest research collection on economic and social change in developing countries. It has over 1 000 journals, 4 000 serials and over 80 000 monographs concerned specifically with development.
