SWOSU Launches Digital Repository Using ebrary's Technology

SWOSU Launches Digital Repository Using ebrary's Technology ebrary®, a leading provider of e-content services and technology, today announced that Southwestern Oklahoma State University (SWOSU) has launched its digital repository using the company's hosted e-publishing services. Available at http://site.ebrary.com/lib/swosudr , the publicly accessible site features the full run of SWOSU's historical yearbooks dating 1906-1993 and will soon include the archive of its student newspaper The Southwestern.

The purpose of the SWOSU Digital Repository is to make a full range of SWOSU historical documents freely available to the public. Among the documents that will soon be added is the 1651 edition of Nicholai Culpeper's A Physical Directory , which will be keyword searchable. The number of titles available through the site will continue to grow.

“When we first looked at ebrary last year, we were primarily interested in subscribing to Academic Complete and offering simultaneous, multi-user access to over 42,900 multidisciplinary titles to our students, faculty and staff,” said Dr. Jon Sparks, Director of Libraries at SWOSU. “We were delighted to learn that we could use the same sophisticated technology to host our own yearbooks and newspapers, and look forward to making more of our digital materials available to the public.”

“ebrary continually strives to develop products and services that meet the information needs of libraries and other organizations on multiple levels,” said Christopher Warnock, CEO of ebrary.

Staying Safe On The Internet

Thieves don't have to break into your home or go through your trash to steal personal information anymore. Instead, they try to get you to send them that information in a high-tech scam called phishing.

If you receive an e-mail asking for bank account and social security numbers, credit card information or other confidential material, it could be a phishing attempt. The National Cyber Security Alliance reports that one in four computers is a target of phishing each month.

Before sending any information, check out the purported company or person asking for the information to make sure it is legitimate. If you feel you have been a victim of phishing, contact the credit bureaus and the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-ID-THEFT. Your insurance company may also offer protection against identity theft.
