Technical Specifications
Journal Finder runs on a Windows 2000 server and uses Microsoft SQL Server and ASP Pages, but the concept could easily be ported to other environments. UNCG is willing to share the Journal Finder package with the library community. We will also provide consultations for those institutions who wish to capitalize on our expertise in setting up their own system, and run it on their own local servers
