Abstract
This paper examines how the application of a project management methodology (PRINCE) together with the use of project management software (Microsoft Project Version 4.0 for Windows) helped with the exercise of replacing a library computer system at the University of Wales Bangor. It concludes that the use of project management techniques within the higher education sector is necessary. Although the task of adopting such methods appears daunting, the possible alternative of expensive failure is perhaps more frightening. In addition, it examines how computer software can greatly reduce the administrative burden of managing large projects, especially and almost paradoxically, when resources are limited.
