The University hosts the largest sports library in the world. It provides a service to the whole of the country.
Jurgen discussed the development of the Virtuellen Fachbibliothek Sportwissenschaft ( ViFa Sport) under a single universal resource locator (url).
Jurgen then presented some of the functionality of ViFa.
He demonstrated the search capabilities built into ViFa.
He noted too the opportunities for international cooperation and the development of an international portal. These opportunities provided a stimulus to extensive discussion after Jurgen’s presentation.
