• The Concept
• Looking at the way that all resources are
  displayed and managed within VLEs (WebCT) and
  how this process can be better managed for all
  parties.
• Changing the way that reading lists are
  managed, presented and delivered to students.
  ANY RESOURCE CAN BE A LINK.
• Creating a layered, flexible approach that
  caters for Lecturers at different stages in
  course development.
• Central storage, distributed maintenance.

• The Organisation
• Angel middleware (Angel-inside).
• Admin tools (databases) that work for the
  administrators, but can also usefully pass
  information on to academics (for presentation).
