Stanford Computer Science, Digital Library Project Interacting With Information: Lessons from the Stanford Digital Library Project October 23, 1998
At this four year mark of our Stanford Digital Library project, we step back and review our work. In this talk we will select several aspects of our project, and discuss the tradeoffs we made. First, we will explain how we approached the challenge of providing a uniform, easy-to-use interface for a diverse digital library. We will discuss our solutions to the user tasks of submitting searches, interacting with document processing services, and analyzing search results. Second, we explain how metadata plays an important role in digital library interoperability, and why existing metadata representations fell short when we tried to use them for digital libraries. Finally, we will explain how user traditions and expectations have impacted our designs at a deeply technical level. |
