Presents a case study on how Jarrett Library at East Texas Baptist University in Marshall, Texas, has been using the ebrary DASH! (data sharing fast) product, to create searchable databases of content. The case study explores the possibilities that are made available by the use of DASH!, including multiple types of information sharing with other libraries, openly on the Internet, and also how it is used for creating proprietary digital repositories. The case study concludes with the reasons why DASH! will continue to be used by the ETBU library as well as what has been most useful in regards to DASH!, including the availability of usage statistics, the low cost, and ease of use. BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON EAST TEXAS BAPTIST UNIVERSITY East Texas Baptist University, also known as ETBU, is a small, private Christian University located in the rolling hills and hardwood and pine forests of northeast Texas in the city of Marshall. At least half of the current campus was technically part of the Louisiana Purchase and the proximity of the area to both Arkansas and Louisiana makes it part of what is known as the Arklatex. Most radio and television comes out of Louisiana, not Texas. Indeed, Marshall is closer to Shreveport, Louisiana than to Tyler, Texas; it is closer to Little Rock, Arkansas than Houston, Texas. As a result East Texas Baptist University and the surrounding region are affected by events in Louisiana, and to a lesser extent Arkansas, as well as the state of Texas. Founded in 1912 as the College of Marshall, the institution was a junior college until 1944 when it became a four-year institution and its name was changed to East Texas Baptist College. In 1984 the name was changed to East Texas Baptist University. The school has been affiliated with the Baptist General Convention of Texas since its founding, one of nine in the state including Baptist University of the Américas, Baylor University, Dallas Baptist University, HardinSimmons University, Houston Baptist University, Howard Payne University, University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, and Wayland Baptist University. East Texas Baptist University currently offers only baccalaureate degrees, although it is anticipated that a recently submitted level change application will be approved with Master‟s programs in education and religion being offered by 2011. The curriculum is liberal arts with some professional programs in business, education and nursing. It is a residential campus and the student FTE has averaged 1150 over the past five years. THE PROBLEM DEFINED Over the past decade the need for a digital repository at ETBU became more apparent for a variety of reasons. First and foremost is the centennial celebration which will begin in 2011 and extend into 2012, making the historic documents located in the library archives and in other offices around campus prime candidates for digitization. Because of the increased emphasis on this event there has been more interest in the organization of the entire special collections and archives and the need for the conservation of fragile materials held therein. Increased emphasis on research has also highlighted the need for a repository promoting faculty and
