Laleuf, Jean R.; Spalter, Anne Morgan – 2001
An important category of SMET digital library content will be highly interactive, explorable microworlds for teaching science, mathematics, and engineering concepts. Such environments have proved to be extraordinarily time-consuming and difficult to produce, while threatening the goals of widespread creation and use. One proposed solution for…

Witten, Ian H.; Bainbridge, David; Boddie, Stefan J. – 2001
Digital library systems focus principally on the reader: the consumer of the material that constitutes the library. In contrast, this paper describes an interface that makes it easy for people to build their own library collections. Collections may be built and served locally from the user's own Web server, or (given appropriate permissions)…
