Digital
Library Technology Trends
Published in August 2002, the white paper from Sun Microsystems
examines technology trends in digital libraries. It starts
with a discussion of the fundamentals of building a digital
collection and how practices have evolved in the past few
years. The paper notes a few pioneering efforts that were
originally intended for the preservation of historical works,
and in doing so, underscores the importance of digital library
design. By using several different sites as examples, the
paper describes how digital libraries are implemented. The
document concludes with a look at how future technologies
will impact the creation and organization of digital libraries.
