Abstract

The LI 01040 project Multifunctional library centre for pedagogy and education has resulted in establishing an electronic Library of education (e-PK) as an association of six libraries focussed on education providing common services of the document delivery type. These libraries have built up a collective catalogue of magazines which they are subscribed to. At the same time, two specialized databases were made accessible, featuring articles from both Czech and foreign magazines. Also, the e-PK pages can be used to look for digitized texts of historical text-books – text-books on history, readers and primers. The e-PK services are operated on SW AiP Safe, purchased within the framework of the project implementation.
