Resumen

As patrons increasingly rely on mobile applications and responsive websites to access information, it has become imperative that libraries accommodate these needs. Although building these resources in-house may seem too expensive, time-consuming, and require outsourcing, this paper showcases how it can be achieved on a small scale using existing staff, innovative funding resources, and affordable training.

Financiación

Development teams need to be creative when searching for outside funding. National, state, and local organizations should be investigated even if they do not typically provide grants or awards. Given that national or regional organizations tend to provide grants for large-scale projects, approaching local or state organizations was deemed more fruitful by the authors because of the small-scale nature of the KRDS project. The development of KRDS has been fully funded by the Kentucky Medical Library Association (KMLA) despite the fact that KMLA has never supported research or technology development projects in the past.
