2001-2006: Strategic Achievements: Creating a better educated graduate for Georgia

Abstract

The Library and Information Center of the Georgia Institute of Technology reports here on its progress in the first five years of the twenty-first century. This period of time encompasses the most robust shift in methods applied to teaching and scholarship perhaps ever. Once characterized as a building full of books, today this Library proves more to be the portal to digital resources and a place for convergence of human interaction. The rapid advancement of computer technology brings with it ubiquitous networking among scholars at all levels. That networking produces immense opportunities for better intellectual sharing among faculty and for enhanced collaboration among students. This Library’s programs over the past half-decade shifted strategically to optimize the opportunities that omnipresent networking makes available.
