Digital Libraries This article from Campus Technology by Matt Villano includes MIT's DSpace in its overview of digital library projects. ______JH ___________ "Digital libraries are not new, but open source, video, and collaborative digital repositories are changing the face of library science." "While many schools have responded with efforts to digitally scan their physical collections, a new wave of digital repositories designed to save only certain types of content are changing the face of library science everywhere. In particular, efforts at Stanford University (CA), Harvard Business School (MA), the University of California system, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology stand out as innovations that could forever revolutionize the way we think about storing content." 10:09:10 AM    COMMENT []
