(World Wide Learning)within an organization. (World Wide Learning)Our project focuses on Knowledge management and Our project focuses on Knowledge management and how it is evolving into Digital Library technologyhow it is evolving into Digital Library technologyDigital Library Digital Library TechnologyTechnologyAccording to Sun Microsystems Digital Library According to Sun Microsystems Digital Library Technology is defined as: The Electronic Extension of Technology is defined as: The Electronic Extension of functions users typically perform and the resources functions users typically perform and the resources they access in a traditional library. they access in a traditional library. Instead of going to a typical library with hardcopy Instead of going to a typical library with hardcopy books, people are starting to use information books, people are starting to use information databases and web technology to get the information databases and web technology to get the information they need at a much faster and more efficient rate. they need at a much faster and more efficient rate. It is essentially bringing the library to your personal It is essentially bringing the library to your personal computers and we will discuss its implementation and computers and we will discuss its implementation and how it helps users like us later on in our presentationhow it helps users like us later on in our presentationHistory of Digital Library History of Digital Library TechnologyTechnologyDigital Library Technology has been evolving since the Digital Library Technology has been evolving since the early 1990’s but it was largely experimental. early 1990’s but it was largely experimental. The U.S National Science Foundation (NSF) and the The U.S National Science Foundation (NSF) and the U.K Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) did U.K Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) did much of the research for DL Technology in the early much of the research for DL Technology in the early nineties. (SunMicro Systems)nineties. (SunMicro Systems)They had three main goals for their program: They had three main goals for their program: 1. Create new technology, which users could find, deliver and 1. Create new technology, which users could find, deliver and exploit. exploit. 2. Assemble information that was not otherwise accessible or 2. Assemble information that was not otherwise accessible or useable due to technical barriers, distance, size, and other useable due to technical barriers, distance, size, and other limits.limits.3. Evaluate the impact of this new technology. (SMS)3. Evaluate the impact of this new technology. (SMS)History ContinuedHistory ContinuedIn 1991, the World Wide Web was released. And it was In 1991, the World Wide Web was released. And it was not until 1995 that the Internet became very not until 1995 that the Internet became very commercialized. By 2000, the Internet had exceeded commercialized. By 2000, the Internet had exceeded their expectations with over 1 billion index able pages. their expectations with over 1 billion index able pages. Search engines such as Google and Yahoo provide a Search engines such as Google and Yahoo provide a searchable index of internet resources. These are searchable index of internet resources. These are broad examples of digital libraries and more detailed broad examples of digital libraries and more detailed descriptions will be discussed in our presentation.descriptions will be discussed in our presentation.There are also other specialized search resources to There are also other specialized search resources to help find certain content on the internet however much help find certain content on the internet however much of the Digital Library technology is being used in of the Digital Library technology is being used in companies to create networks and store data that is companies to create networks and store data that is accessible to the companies
