The Design and Implementation of a Web-Accessible Library Database (WALDB) Containing Materials for the Rural Transit Assistance Program (RTAP)

The objectives of the library of a Rural Transit Assistance Program are to promote the effective operation of public transit systems while efficiently utilizing public and private resources and to continually improve the quality and availability of resources and technical assistance to rural transit systems. To fulfill these requirements the Small Urban and Rural Transit Center (SURTC) at North Dakota State University (NDSU) designed and implemented a Web-accessible library database (WALDB) containing materials for the Rural Transit Assistance Program (RTAP). This document describes the software design and development procedures for this RTAP library database.
