The main aims of the training session have been to present the system of acquisition of electronic resources in place at the University of Pavia, to introduce academic resources such as databases, link ups, Proxybibs from business and medical areas and describe their potential and to show how they work. 

Thanks to his strong commitment, the SAHA Project Coordinator, Prof. Antonio M. Morone, was able to obtain the free access to all the digital academic resources of the University of Pavia for the Libyan partners. Each participant of the training got her / his personal credentials to access, until the end of the project, the resources of the University of Pavia. The strong point of the training was to illustrate not only how digital academic resources work, but also the system of acquisition of electronic resources in place at the University of Pavia and in the Italian national territory, in a way that would stimulate a possible purchase within Libyan institutions as well, taking into consideration that Libyan market will be a new market for these kinds of resources.
