LOCI serves as a forum for sharing information on how academic libraries are linking electronic resources with web-based course information software, assisting faculty in the use of these tools and promoting information literacy within this new teaching and learning environment.

Many academic institutions are selecting and implementing these web-based course information software systems and it is important that libraries be key players. LOCI will collect benchmarking data and identify best practices.
