The Department of Information Technology aims at improving and enlivening the
educational process through appropriate technology. At present, the Academy
already provides the best technical services to humanities students in Ukraine.
The administration appreciates the importance of information technology and
the opportunity it provides to participate in the current globalization of education,
scholarship and society. Students enjoy free access to word processing and printing,
individual email accounts, unlimited web browsing, graphics editing, and some
multimedia production. Faculty and staff enjoy the same services in a variety
of offices linked to the campus network. The library
and several research institutes are part of this network. The Institute of Church
History has a large and impressive multimedia database going up on the web,
including photos, audio interviews, and text documenting the Ukrainian Catholic
underground. Over 30,000 pages of historically valuable interviews have now
been digitalized. The LTA continues to receive recognition for its technological
programs. A Carnegie Foundation grant (administered by IREX) will fund the first
stage of the Database of Ukrainian Art. One librarian recently received a grant
from the ACLS for electronic publication of his bibliography of Ukrainians in
Latin America.
