| ?Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala | Akerlund?s presentation is available at http://utb32.bibul.slu.se/berlin XML is used for long-term preservation, because text is timeless XML is also used for standardized data exchange; it allows for dynamic updating from different sources As part of this project, existing (since 1990) documents will be scanned and published in XML Vision for Integrated Publishing System a template, with instructions for the author www front end to a database metadata added, using web forms output in HTML, PDF. WML, ... Publishing system: Cocoon Web server: Apache + JServ on Linux XML parser: Xerces XSLT processor: Xalan XSL-FO processor: FOP They are considering TEI Light as the DTD (a core set, with modules) They would use a servlet for data gathering, editing, to control the entry of data (write an XML editor and implement it as a servlet) Another possibility: use a DTD-based editor (WordPerfect 9? XMetal?) | http://utb32.bibul.slu.se/berlin | http://dochost.rz.hu-berlin.de/epdiss/dtd-workshop/potter.html | 2000-10-31 | |
| ISSAC | The Issac Network software is concepually very similar to ROADS, but providses a much more limited set of functionality - restricted to search and retrieval, although cross-searching of multiple Issac nodes is supported. There is no equivalent to the Web based server adin and maintenance tools provided with ROADS. Issac supports three distinct services: * metadata repository - provides storage for metadaat record, which may be fetched by other Issac nodes. also generates TIOs * index service - gathers metadata from repositories, indexes it, and makes it availble for searching * search service - a web based front end for searching | [from Renardus D1.1] | 2000-10-31 | ||
| IMesh Toolkit | The project will build on existing subject gateway software to develop a configurable, reusable and extensible toolkit for subject gateway providers. A complementary research strand will consider issues of relevance in the distributed, international subject gateway environment, including metadata sharing and reuse. | http://www.imesh.org/toolkit/ | from: http://www.imesh.org/toolkit/ | 2000-10-31 | |

| lanksafferiet | The Link Larder is a database for educational use and is meant to be a pedagogical aid for Swedish pupils, especially those between 10 and 15 years of age, in their search for useful information on the Internet. The Link Larder consists of subject structured and quality-assessed Internet information resources. All the web sites are classified and arranged in 12 main groups. The classification is based upon the traditional Swedish classification system for public and school libraries. | http://lankskafferiet.skolverket.se/ | http://lankskafferiet.skolverket.se/information/brief_presentation.html | 2000-10-31 | |
| IPG | The purpose of the IPG is to collect high quality pointers in order to help researchers, students and teachers at the Technical University of Denmark in their studies and work. All selected pointers are relevant to the subjects studied at the university. - an internet catalogue; uses Perl, but doesn't seem to use ROADS. searching and browsing available. short descriptions given. | http://www.dtv.dk/ipg/ | http://www.dtv.dk/ipg/about.htm | 2000-10-31 | |
| Danish national SBIG of library resources | Technical Knowledge Center and Library of Denmark is a centre at Technical University of Denmark, DTU. The Technical Knowledge Center and Library of Denmark is one of Europe's leading centers offering digital access to scientific and technical information. A wide range of advanced electronic services are offered, 24 hours a day, to universities and the business community. | http://www.dtv.dk/index_e.htm | http://www.dtv.dk/index_e.htm | 2000-10-31 | |
| DutchESS | DutchESS, Dutch Electronic Subject Service, is a Dutch national subject gateway aimed at the academic community. Quality resources are selected and classified according to the Nederlandse Basisclassificatie (Dutch Basic Classification). The service used to be named after the classification scheme: NBW, Nederlands Basisclassificatie Web (Dutch Classification Web), but was renamed when the new restructered and improved version was released in August 1997. DutchESS has been developed by the Koninklijke Bibliotheek (the National Library of the Netherlands) in a two-year project (1996-1998), funded by IWI (innovatie Wetenschappelijke Informatievoorziening). During the project phase a number of Dutch academic libraries started to participate in the service on an informal basis. | http://www.konbib.nl/dutchess/ | http://www.konbib.nl/dutchess/docs/info.html | 2000-10-31 | |
