Abstract

In 1994 the National Science Foundation launched its Digital Libraries Initiative (DLI). The choice of combining the word digital with library immediately defined three interested parties: librarians, computer scientists, and publishers. The eventual impact of the Initiative reached far beyond these three groups. The Google search engine emerged from the funded work and has changed working styles for virtually all professions and private activities that involve a computer. The improved methods for searching video, which the Initiative funded, have led to new approaches for detecting longitudinal trends in nursing home occupant health (CareMedia). Similarly, the Initiative has touched the work of historians, anthropologists, political science and law, and many other professions. But one of the more intriguing aspects of the DLI was its matchmaking coup of uniting librarians and computer scientists. Publishers were and are on the scene, but triangles are complicated, and just contemplating the binary union between academic librarians and computer scientists is rich enough for one article. Between the two, are there clear winners and losers after 10 years? Many would answer this question with a vigorous nod.
