- Elin@: Electronic Library Information Navigator--Towards the "One Stop Shop" Information Alwerud, Anna Jorgensen, Lotte Electronic Libraries Academic Libraries Electronic Journals Library Services Navigation (Information Systems) Gateway Systems Online Searching Foreign Countries Computer Software Evaluation Computer System Design Computer Software Reviews Database Management Systems Library Automation Library Development Libraries subscribe to thousands of electronic journals and they are difficult for end-users to find. Journal and publisher interfaces and functionalities differ considerably. The recent development in e-media calls for central management of the resources. Lund University Libraries' Head Office has developed a service for presentation and administration of e-journals, ELIN@. The service is used by ten Swedish academic libraries. This article describes the ELIN@ user interface and the administration tool. ELIN@ offers a "one stop shop" that makes e-journals searchable on an article level in one single interface together with other selected material, e.g., e-print archives. Personalisation and easy ordering are other user facilities. The consistent statistics obtained in ELIN@provide administrators with tools for selection and acquisition, and library branding puts the quality stamp on the material that users and funding agencies need.
