About

LogisticsWorld's library is dedicated to all the military loggies who made possible the impossible plans of their brilliant leaders. After all, "Behind every great leader there was an even greater logistician."

Purpose

The WWW Virtual Library of Logistics provides starting points for logistics professionals to locate and share logistics resources on the Internet. The goal of the site is to speed the process of locating logistics information in the Internet, and to present learning opportunities to logistics professionals.

This site is aimed at the "whole logistician" by providing links to a broad spectrum of news, information, services, and activities. The concept of logistics as applied in here begins with logistics planning and ends with reclamation and recovery. In other words, logistics includes integrating the aspects of:

logistics planning, design, manufacturing, purchasing, procurement, contracting, provisioning, fielding, marketing, sales, transportation, distribution, supply, warehousing, materials handling, maintenance, reclamation, recovery, reuse, management, support, technology, and research.

URLs and Server Information

Virtual Library of Logistics - A guide to logistics, transportation, distribution, supply, maintenance, manufacturing, management, reliability, mathematics, business, and quality on the web.

The site contains a database of over 75,000 sites on the internet, and additional sites listed topic pages.

Library URLs are the result of searches and categorization of sites using various internet search engines. Many links are the result of numerous site visits (surfing) and investigation of site resources. Links are also submitted directly from users. Anyone is welcome to submit links, conferences, news or other inputs.

The site is produced using the Microsoft Internet Developer Studio, FrontPage, VBScript, ActiveX Controls, Active Server Pages, and served from a Microsoft NT4 IIS Index/SQL server.
