"DigiTop gives USDA people access to electronic information about agriculture and a lot of other subjects, 24 hours a day," said National Agricultural Library Director Peter Young. "It offers new and more efficient solutions consistent with E-government goals, showing the good things that can happen when USDA agencies collaborate." The National Agricultural Library has combined funding from USDA agencies to acquire USDA-wide licenses to more than 7,000 electronic journals, newspapers, key databases, statistics, and other important digital information resources and to present them in a 1-year pilot of DigiTop." Thanks to NFAIS for the news tip.
