Abstract
Economic and social development can be greatly accelerated by libraries that create online databases composed of research conducted within their own institutions. At universities and research centres in developing nations, bodies of new information are abundant, relevant, and close at hand. Yet most of this information will never find its way into conventional channels of information dissemination, such as print publications or vendor-produced databases. But this information can become the content for original, library-based databases and other online resources that will stimulate further research and promote national development, and give libraries a new and important role as points of information provenance.
