Popis: Within the framework of "PLOIGIS" Macedonia University Library seek the possibility of developing a Web-based document delivery service. As technology advances and patrons' demands increase for timely access to information, librarians seek new methods to improve document delivery and interlibrary loan services whilst monitoring and controlling copyright issues. The procedure would have two main features: Either an electronically received article (i.e. through ARIEL) could be send electronically, or, printed articles could be scanned and send electronically. In many instances e-mail delivery of articles could be a source of various problems related to the size of the attached files. A reliable solution would be to store all articles on a web server where users can access them through the Internet. Extensive literature review and Internet exploration session dictated the use of PROSPERO, as the most appropriate software for the Library needs. PROSPERO is an open source application developed by Prior Health Science Library of Ohio State University. Prospero is a web based document delivery system. Its main advantages are the capability of sending and receiving PDF files, its perfect interaction with ARIEL, its compatibility with a wide range of scanner models, the authorization system through unique ID's (automatic creation and send to the user), the capability of article deletion by the user, the email article attachment and the administrative options of all the above. PROSPERO was installed relatively easy on a Windows 2000 server, connected to a Minolta PS7000 scanner. It was adapted accordingly to serve the Library needs and with the development of an access web site it started working on July 2003. By the end of 2003 Macedonia University Library intends to fully convert the document delivery procedure through PROSPERO, providing the chance for a faster and move efficient service without the need of the user's physical presence in library promises.
