摘要

Advances in telecommunications and networking have potentially as much to offer faculty and educational institutions as they offer to distance students in expanded opportunities and cost efficlency. While academic libraries often take advantage of networking to share a variety of resources and services, academic departments utilize the medium primarily to offer distance courses, collaborate on research, coordinate admlnistrative functions, or to communicate with students and alumni. Distance programs expand a university's reach, but they have yet to challenge the structure of departments or to shift from the traditional paradigm of a "delivery" view of education (Brown and Duguid, 1998). This paper describes an experiment to create a virtual department for international scholars with similar Interests who are somewhat out of the mainstream research areas in their own institutions. We describe briefly the evaluation of the project and some of the challenges of sustaining such communities, including the need for administrative support and adequate electronic resources.
