Establishing an interactive multimedia facility for community use at the Writing Liaison Office

Abstract

Considers the establishment of an interactive multimedia facility at the Writing Liaison Office, Liverpool, UK. Investigates the potential for interactive multimedia, as well as local developments. Information was gathered through interviews with local organizations, a literature search and a user survey in the form of a questionnaire. Concludes that interactive multimedia will greatly affect the provision of information, and that establishing a facility at the Writing Liaison Office will allow Merseyside to continue to be a leading figure in the field of multimedia. Recommends that an interactive multimedia facility be established at the Writing Liaison Office, with adequate equipment and technical support.
