Enhancing Public Sector IT Use: The Content Loop Initiative (1999-2003)

The Content Loop initiative aimed to improve access to educational and cultural resources, respond to researchers' data needs, and test new economic models for public services. By 2003, achievements included free outgoing traffic, fair charging schemes, and collaborations with ISPs and national institutions. Future steps require long-term commitment and overcoming internal organizational challenges.
