Abstract

Both corporate and academic institutions are required to be flexible and adaptable to the
ever changing technological environment. Electronic or digital libraries are just one of
the instruments through which academic institutions can adapt to the changing
environment as well as meeting the demands of the student. The overall objective of the
study is to identify important variables namely; knowledge management, information
accessibility and digital libraries for consideration at the implementation phase, and thus
enable successful implementation of a valid electronic library. The project methodology
will follow a hybrid methodology composed of both the SDLC and Summit D
methodologies. Analysis, requirements gathering, and other activities are some of the few
tasks, enabling researchand ultimately a working prototype. The final output of the paper
will be a full scale implementation of an e-library for the Universiti Teknologi Petronas.
Such an implementation will see the institution breaking new ground in information
technologies and knowledge management. By its nature academic institutions impart
knowledge, thus an implementation of an electronic library will seek to facilitate UTP in
ensuring that knowledge, information are imparted to all stakeholders, in particular the
students. Information, knowledge, will be made available and thus ensure proper
utilization of these resources.
