What is a Digital
Library (DL)?
ˇ“a collection
of information that is both digitized and organized” (Lesk)
lthere are
numbers of alternate definitions, but this seems fair enough
lno mention of
________, __________, __________,
etc.
ˇIt is not
just to reform the current library system, rather, we aim to
lorganize and
access the “information overload”
