D-lib magazine, the (monthly) magazine of Digital Library Research, is
now mirrored in the UK at:
http://ukoln.bath.ac.uk/dlib/magazine.html
D-Lib originates in the US. It is "a forum for researchers and
developers of advanced digital libraries. It is coordinated by the
Corporation for National Research Initiatives for the Information
Infrastructure Technology and Applications Working Group of the High
Performance Computing and Communications program. Its objectives are:
* To stimulate the development of a common infrastructure for digital
libraries and to coordinate research in those aspects that require
consensus.
* To provide information exchange about all research and advanced
development in digital libraries, particularly federally funded research
within the High Performance Computing and Communications program.
* To encourage and assist the transfer of these research efforts into
the creation of the national digital library system."
The monthly magazine consists of articles, news and commentary on all
aspects of digital library research, from Metadata and Z39.50, to the UK
eLib programme, individual projects from around the world, Internet-based
education and many other topics.
