Apologies for cross posting. ---------------------- The first issue of the DLF Newsletter is now available from http://www.clir.org/diglib/pubs/news01/index.htm The Newsletter is a quarterly web-based publication through which DLF members exchange information about their respective digital library developments and develop a practical information resource for those interested in networked educational and cultural information. The first issue includes reports from 10 DLF members and the Office of the DLF director. An editorial introduces the Newsletter and sets out its aims and objectives, and a feature by Ann-Marie Parsons reflects on issues arising from her work compiling a registry of DLF members' online digital collections. Thanks to all who had a hand in compiling members' reports and in submitting them in a timely fashion. Frankly, we were both overwhelmed and gratified by your response and by the extent of activity it describes. Accordingly, there is still some editing work left to do on the Newsletter, and maintaining its numerous links will undoubtedly be a persistent challenge. We ask for your patience as we continue to correct what errors remain. Special thanks to Novera King and Ann Marie Parsons who worked so hard here at DLF to pull together the great wealth of information with which we were supplied. Kind regards, Dan Daniel Greenstein Director, Digital Library Federation 1755 Massachusetts Ave, NW, Suite 500 Washington DC 20036 ph: (202) 939-4762 fax: (202) 939-4765
