Virtual Library in the New Knowledge and E-Learning Environments

Gloria Isabel Vargas Hurtado,

Synopsis

The rapid and continuous evolution of knowledge makes digital information systems of access, storage, and distribution, such as virtual libraries, vital for the online training of professionals. However, the rapid evolution of digital storage schemes causes the design, implementation, and use of digital resources not to occur adequately and effectively. Therefore, it is necessary to have studies that shed light on the elements, components, and schemes of use that must make up a virtual library to meet the academic, research, technological, and communication needs of students and teachers and that lead to and support quality in the online training of university studies. The thesis “Virtual Library: A Model of Academic Space for Online Training in University Studies” makes a detailed, comprehensive, and exhaustive investigation of the system and the use of the virtual library at the National Open and Distance University (UNAD for its Spanish acronym) of Colombia. It presents a virtual library model that includes the requirements for its appropriate design as the result of the analysis, focusing on the efficiency and impact on its students' academic and research training. The results of this research are important, relevant., and necessary in the educational systems to impact and train university professionals in our current information society.

Keywords: models, Information and communication technologies, online teaching and learning, virtual education, technological tools, library services
