PaLib address two problems. 1) the scarce resources to the Palestinian academic institutions due to limited resources within one UNIV and the physical access to it due to the geographical disconnected areas in PS. 2)the lack of a unified portal of research and researchers that includes all the research produced by the Palestinians which poses different issues toward enhancing the research infrastructure. Hence, local UNIV needs are: 1)Widening the availability of literatures for both students and academics. 2)Building research networks. 3)Allowing international databases to consider the developed research portal. 4)Building Palestinian research identity. 5)enhancing student workspace in PS libraries. The following main outcomes are expected: 1)Unified e-library portal. 2)Research repository for the staff. 3)Staff training as assets. 4)National electronic research publishing consortium. Since PaLib has been targeting the infrastructure of higher education, PaLib will impact six main categories: 1)Students: the project will expand the academic and research resources for all students. PaLib eliminates the problem of disconnect areas in PS. 2)Librarians: the project will deliver a high training level for librarian on Palestinian universities. 3)Local researchers: local researchers will be able to connect through the platform to access other research items that they couldn’t before deploying the platform. 4)International researchers: the project will help Palestinian and European partners to exchange research outputs through the platform and it will be one step towards globalizing the Palestinian research activities. 5)The Ministry of Higher education MOE: will have a good vision on the future of research and development on PS and help plan the future strategies of higher education in PS. 6) The Ministry of Culture: to install rules and regulations that support electronic research publishing in PS.
