TEI and XML in Digital Libraries Two-Day Meeting. June 30-July 1, 1998 Sponsored by the Digital Library Federation Location: Library of Congress (Jefferson Building LJ119) Directions to front of Jefferson Building @ LoC For more information, please contact tei-dlf@umich.edu Purpose of Meeting To explore common problems and common solutions for applications of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) in large-scale conversion and encoding efforts, primarily in libraries. To explore the impact of Extensible Markup Language (XML), and XML-conformant TEI, on digital library efforts. Why This is Important for Digital Libraries The TEI has been implemented by all the major digital library encoded-text programs: there is a need to address issues of common concern to the MARC standards community, TEI header developers, and catalogers the library community has not been well-represented in TEI governance the plans for future administration and governance of the TEI standard are uncertain XML will radically change (improve) the ability to deliver encoded text on the Web: DTDs used by digital library programs will have to be made XML-conformant potentially large quantities of encoded text materials will have to be upgraded to XML-conformance library delivery systems for text materials on the Web will need to be adapted Specific Issues to be Covered

Number 4 July/August 1998 Contents What Are Digital Libraries? by Donald J. Waters Cornell Project Will Assess Risks of Migration Strategy by James M. Morris Task Forces to Meet in Plenary Session by James M. Morris Announcements What Are Digital Libraries? by Donald J. Waters THE MEANING OF the term “digital library” is less transparent than one might expect. The words conjure up images of cutting-edge computer and information science research. They are invoked to describe what some assert to be radically new kinds of practices for the management and use of information. And they are used to replace earlier references to “electronic” and “virtual” libraries. The partner institutions in the Digital Library Federation (DLF) realized in the course of developing their program that they needed a common understanding of what digital libraries are if they were to achieve the goal of effectively “federating” them. So they crafted the following definition, with the understanding that it might well undergo revision as they worked together: Digital libraries are organizations that provide the resources, including the specialized staff, to select, structure, offer intellectual access to, interpret, distribute, preserve the integrity of, and ensure the persistence over time of collections of digital works so that they are readily and economically available for use by a defined community or set of communities.

Digital Libraries Subject areas Video gaming Digital libraries Academia Digital photography Overview of services About Ceangal ... Bibliography Overview Over the past decade, I have researched or worked in several digital library centres and information science departments. This has led to a wealth of experience and contacts in many aspects of digital library project and service funding, development, use and promotion. Consequently, much of the work that I have completed as a consultant is connected with digital library services and systems. In addition to these works, I write papers and the occasional article, carry out presentations and demonstrations, use digital library services through unconventional environments e.g. games consoles, and visit digital library service providers. Relevant Interests My interests in the field of digital libraries are very wide-ranging. However, I am particularly interested in the following: Key interests: The differences and similarities in how digital library services are developed, used and promoted, between the UK and Scandinavian countries. The use of digital library systems (especially the practicalities) in the highlands and islands of Scotland.

53. Digital Libraries And Autonomous Citation Indexing [Steve Lawrence, C. Lee Giles digital libraries and Autonomous Citation Indexing. IEEE Computer ACMConf. on digital libraries, ACM Press, New York, 1998, pp. 8998. http://www.neci.nec.com/~lawrence/papers/aci-computer98/aci-computer99.html

Digital Libraries and Autonomous Citation Indexing Steve Lawrence C. Lee Giles Kurt Bollacker NEC Research Institute Download paper: PS.Z PS.gz PS PDF ... Publications page The Web is revolutionizing the way researchers access scientific literature, however scientific literature on the Web is largely disorganized. Autonomous citation indexing can help organize the literature by automating the construction of citation indices. Autonomous citation indexing aims to improve the dissemination and retrieval of scientific literature, and provides improvements in cost, availability, comprehensiveness, efficiency, and timeliness. The rapid increase in the volume of scientific literature has led to researchers constantly fighting information overload in their pursuit of knowledge. Staying up to date with recently published literature - and actually finding relevant sources - is becoming increasingly difficult, if not impossible. Experience varies widely, but the time when every essential journal was held in all major academic libraries has passed The Web promises to make more scientific articles more easily available. An increasing number of authors, journals, institutions, and archives make research articles available for almost immediate access. However, scientific literature on the Web remains remarkably disorganized. Scientists can post relevant preprints on their Web sites, but finding articles quickly can be difficult because Web search engines have difficulty keeping up to date

56. Library Of Congress Co-sponsorship For National Science Foundation Digital Libra The Library of Congress is pleased to participate as a sponsor of the digital librariesInitiative Phase II announced by the National Science Foundation (NSF http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/dli2/

Background The Library of Congress is pleased to participate as a sponsor of the Digital Libraries Initiative - Phase II announced by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in February 1998. In addition to NSF, the Library of Congress joins the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the National Library of Medicine (NLM), The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the National Endowment for the Humanities in sponsoring this second phase of the Digital Libraries Initiative. The Library of Congress is committed to digital libraries not only as an expansion of the traditional service offered by the nation's libraries but also as a new resource created by many hands and accessible via national and international computer networks. The Digital Libraries Initiative - Phase II is intended to extend the research carried out during the initial awards announced in 1994, then sponsored by the National Science Foundation, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the National Aeronautical and Space Administration. The first phase funded six research projects over a five-year period and signaled the beginning of a national conversation about digital libraries, promoting discussion of "the importance of improving the utility, effectiveness, performance, scalability and sustainability of current and future digital services and collections." Plans for the next steps in this important initiative were made in a 1996 workshop whose participants agreed that research should be conducted with real collections and real users in mind.

The development of digital libraries for blind and visually impaired people The 2001 IFLA pre-conference for the Section of Libraries for the Blind (SLB) took place in Washington with a theme of Digital Libraries for the Blind and the Culture of Learning in the Information Age. Jenny Craven Increasing information choices through web-based technologies. The 2001 IFLA pre-conference SLB took place in Washington with a theme of Digital Libraries for the Blind and the Culture of Learning in the Information Age [1]. Papers delivered at the 2001 conference were from a wide range of subjects relating to digital libraries for the blind. Subject areas included meeting the educational needs of children and youth through libraries for the blind, digital library services and education, creating inclusive models of service and building small digital libraries for the blind. This report will focus on a selection of papers looking at how the development of the Internet and web-based technologies can be used to increase information choices for people who are blind and to enhance a culture of learning in the information age. Further details about the conference can be found on the IFLA SLB web site [2]. As a tool for the delivery of library services the Internet should offer increasing possibilities to users who are print disabled. It should enable people to access information in a format that is appropriate to their needs, which could be in a braille or audio format, or through assistive technologies. These may include speech output, braille output, tactile devices or even just through simple adjustments to a browser. Despite growing technological developments, however, a paper on
