5. Featured DL of the Week It is a demo and tour of your DL, highlighting interesting and unique features and functionality. Sign-up for the date that you want to present the DL. We will have 2 or 3 presentations per week. Select a DL of your choice. Submit your review about the DL (Canvas Assignment Submission) on the date of your presentation. Give a presentation of your DL on the date that you signed.

8. Annotated Bibliography Choose a topic of interest in digital libraries from Digital Library Curriculum Development Module Framework (Available at: http://curric.dlib.vt.edu/DLcurric_images/ModuleFramewo rk2008-08-23.pdf) http://curric.dlib.vt.edu/DLcurric_images/ModuleFramewo rk2008-08-23.pdf Develop a research question related to the topic that you want to investigate (e.g., concepts, issues, trends, etc.). Search articles (academic or professional) to find an answer for the research question and select the most relevant ones (at least 6 from different authors). Write a statement up to 600 words about your literature review on the topic (APA style) Add bibliographic citations (APA Style) and summaries of the articles (about 300 words, each) that you cited in the statement.

9. Annotated Bibliography Evaluation Appropriateness of the topic in DL research and practice Writing fluency of the AB statement (e.g., clarity, completeness, organization, critical thinking) Relevance of the selected articles to the topic Writing fluency of the article summaries (at least 6 from different authors) (e.g., clarity, completeness) APA style in text and reference formatting, spelling, and grammar, word-limits, etc.

10. DL Building Creating and maintaining DLs are coping with the sheer amount of organizational, technological, and human effort involved. The planning, creation and execution of a DL draws on the expertise of many, and requires making difficult choices at almost every stage.

15. What is a digital library?

16. What is a Digital Library? A library? A database? A collection of digital objects?

17. Digital Libraries: An Overview “Building DLs is not just a question of piling up disk drives; it involves creating an entire organization of machines and people, perhaps even a culture, in which we are able to find information and use it” (Lesk, 2004, p.5) From “Understanding Digital Libraries” by Michael Lesk

18. “Digital libraries are the logical extensions and augmentations of physical libraries in the electronic information society. Extensions amplify existing resources and services and augmentations enable new kinds of human problem solving and expression.” Marchionini, Encyclopedia of LIS Definition 1

19. “Digital libraries are the logical extensions and augmentations of physical libraries in the electronic information society. Extensions amplify existing resources and services and augmentations enable new kinds of human problem solving and expression.” Marchionini, Encyclopedia of LIS Definition 1

20. Digital libraries as “focused collections of digital objects, including text, video, and audio along with methods for access and retrieval, and for selection, organization, and maintenance” (Witten, 2010,, p. xvi) Definition 2

21. Digital libraries as “focused collections of digital objects, including text, video, and audio along with methods for access and retrieval, and for selection, organization, and maintenance” (Witten, 2010,, p. xvi) Definition 2

22. “A managed collection of information, with associated services, where the information is stored in digital formats and accessible over a network. A crucial part of this definition is that the information is managed. A stream of data sent to earth from a satellite is not a library. The same data, when organized systematically, becomes a digital library collection.” Arms, W. Y. (2000). Digital Libraries. Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press. Definition 3

24. Definition 4 “Digital libraries are constructed, collected and organized, by (and for) a community of users, and their functional capabilities support the information needs and uses of that community.” Borgman, C. L. (1999). What are Digital Libraries? Competing Visions. Information Processing & Management, 35(3), 227-243.

26. Definition 5: “DLs 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” DLF’s working definition of DL (1998)

What is your definition of not-a-digital library? – Post 1-sentence definition of each to Canvas>Modules>Week 4 > Things to do after class > Week 4: What is your definition of a digital library

29. Copyright, Ownership, Fair Use, Public Domain “Possession of a copy of a document certainly does not constitute ownership.” (Witten, 2010, p. 29) “Copyright does not last forever; when it expires, the work passes into the public domain” (Witten, 2010, p. 31) The Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works – Min duration = author’s life time + 50 years US Copyright Office – Min duration = author’s life time + 70 years – http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-duration.html http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-duration.html Fair Use (US Copyright: Fair Use http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html) http://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl102.html – Purpose, character, nature of the work, the amount and substantiality of the portion, the effect of the use, etc.
