摘要

This paper aims on demonstrating the objective limits of a digital library system, when self-restricted within the frame of the capabilities of an organisation not invoking or exploiting the synergies of a wider operation environment. The methodology followed includes: Description of the 7 components of the Digital Library of NDC: i.e. 1). Electronic journals Collection, 2). Hellenic Interlibrary Loan Network, 3). Collection of digitised Dissertation Thesis, 4). Union Catalogue of Periodicals, 5). Collection of gray literature (Digitisation of conference proceedings), 6). Digitisation of Hellenic journals 7). Provision and exploitation of installed data bases. For each one of the components data on size and usage are given. The limits of further development and exploitation are traced under conditions of closed environments while capabilities and mutual benefits resulting from cooperation with relative organisations are presented.
