Qatar National Library’s efforts in opening up Qatar’s research output - A step towards a global open access transformation

Abstract

What if libraries can have access to all content? Furthermore, what if this access is immediate once a new issue, journal, article, or book is published? This question is perhaps something that many librarians have wondered about or at least wished to have. It is probably not possible yet explaining the necessity still for interlibrary loan and document delivery services (ILDS) in many libraries worldwide.
