Description
Description'Ipswich Global Info-Links has been developed by Ipswich City Council to provide a high level of integrated information services to the Ipswich Region. This will be done by accessing the large number of information services available over computer networks from other parts of Australia and around the world, on various forms of high capacity electronic media.
The operational heart of IGIL will be housed in a specific purpose-built Library and Information Centre adjacent to the City Administration Building. This building is currently under construction and due for completion in December 1994. The new Library has been designed as an Information Technology & Telecommunication hub for the City of Ipswich. Actual links between the hub and end users will vary from ordinary modem at the low end of transmission speed to I.S.D.N., Fibre Optic Cable and Microwave Links.' Additional Information This artefact was included in the Ipswich Global Information Centre Time Capsule (Ipswich Library) in 1998.
