  • Abstract:
    This report is a record of the major activities and accomplishments of the Transportation Library

    Connectivity and Development pooled fund study, TPF-5(237), from its approval by FHWA in

    2010 through its fifth and final annual meeting in August 2015.

    To deal with the overwhelming amount of valuable information produced by transportation

    agencies available in digital and physical formats, the transportation sector needs to engage

    libraries and leverage the specialized skills and systematic approach of professional librarians to

    effectively locate and curate this information.

    The Transportation Library Connectivity and Development pooled fund study is a continuation of

    the work of the previous study, TPF-5(105). In response to the recommendations of the previous

    study, a functional library consortium was established. This consortium offered members

    opportunities to enhance and improve services to their customers, while reducing costs and to

    prepare for federally funded scientific research and data policy changes, MAP 21 and the

    evolution of the National Transportation Library. A new pooled fund study, to be led by Missouri

    DOT, is being planned to build upon the achievements of this study.
