<br />001771 <br /> <br />48 <br /> <br />Information office objectives will be accomplished through the activities of two primary <br />programs and four functions. The two programs are library services and systems administration. <br />The library contains all hardcopy data, information, and products as well as digital data on <br />electronic media. A complete catalog of library conten1t will be maintained and searchable on the <br />website. The library is currently undertaken a project intended to digitize all legacy hardcopy <br />content so that it can be incorporated into and disseminated from the website. The library also <br />coordinates the Center's peer review function. Peer review helps insure that GCMRC products <br />are of the highest quality. <br />Systems administration is responsible for providing computer and network infrastructure <br />needed for the website and library as well as the rest of the GCMRC. Systems administration <br />also coordinates the Center's World Wide Web presence via a website on the Internet. All digital <br />data, information, and products will be available to our constituency from this website. This plan <br />proposes that future website development be serviced in-house to provide greater flexibility with <br />the changing needs of the GCMRC. A new full-time Web development term position will be <br />created that will be funded jointly by the GCMRC and the SBSC. <br />The library is staffed by one permanent full-time federal employee and one contract <br />student employee. The student employee is primarily r<esponsible for digitizing legacy hardcopy <br />content. Systems administration will be staffed by a permanent full-time systems administrator <br />and a full-time computer technician and Web developer shared and funded jointly by the <br />GCMRC and SBSC. <br />Program implementation, primarily in the area of web development, is expected to <br />commence in FY2004 and continue through FY2006 at which point the program will enter into a <br />maintenance mode that will primarily involve minor system modification and the integration of <br />new data and information as it becomes available. It is anticipated that new development cycles <br />will need to commence on 1 to 3 year intervals depending upon the changing needs of GCMRC <br />science activities, user needs, and advances in technology. <br /> <br />GCMRC FY2006 Annual Work Plan (Draft February 15,2005) <br />
