The Hanoi National University (HNU) and the Corporation for Financing and Promoting Technology (FPT) are cooperating in building a national open library system, Vietnam Open BOOK, to serve training, research and technological application.
Vietnam Open BOOK is expected to provide around 200,000 document/book titles in the next three years.
Once operational, Vietnam Open Book will digitalise existing school materials and documents, helping lecturers and students to gain easier access to treasures of knowledge.
In the first phase, the library system will be available for all users in and outside the HNU.
The HNU will classify information sources, coordinate with the FPT in developing solutions and technologies and provide consultancy on selected information products and services to users.
It will also build contents for the library system as well as provide free documents and IT infrastructure for users./.
