Kansas State University Co-operative Extension Service, Kansas State University Libraries and the National Agricultural Library formed a partnership in 1994 to demonstrate the effective use of the MARC record to enhance access to extension education materials. The demonstration project was slated to run for one year before being evaluated. Now in its third year, the "project" is an integrated and coordinated effort to identify, catalog, and provide access to all of the publications produced by the Cooperative Extension Service and Agricultural Experiment Stations. Two significant changes have occurred since the project's inception that have increased access to these materials - many of the publications are loaded as full-text documents onto the K-State Research and Extension web site and they are "hotlinked" from the Libraries' online catalog. The project has improved communication between the partners and their ability to work cooperatively toward common and significant goals.
