- Abstract
- Purpose - To research a resource description framework (RDF) based digital library system that facilitates digital resource management and supports knowledge management for an interoperable information environment. Design/methodology/approach - The paper first introduces some of issues with metadata management and knowledge management and describes the needs for a true interoperable environment for information transferring across domains. A journal delivery application has been implemented as a concept-proof project to demonstrate the usefulness of RDF in digital library systems. Findings - The RDF-based digital library system at the University of Arizona Libraries provides an easy way for digital resource management by integrating other applications regardless of metadata formats and web presence. Practical implications - A journal delivery application has been running in the RDF-based digital library system since April 2005. An electronic theses and dissertation application will be handled by the same system. Originality/value - The paper suggests to use RDF, the semantic web technology, as a new approach to facilitate knowledge management and metadata management. Using RDF technology brings new ways to manage and discover information for libraries.

- Abstract
- Purpose - The purpose of this article is to describe a new use of technology to improve users' access to electronic resources. Design/methodology/approach - Describes the use of guided searches in a library gateway to shorten the pathway to information for library users. Findings - Guided search forms can be constructed for both databases and catalogs using HTML and JavaScript. They are a useful alternative to vendor-provided search interfaces, especially for inexperienced users. Research limitations/implications - This paper focuses on the technical issues involved in creating guided searches. It does not address usability testing and a detailed comparison of effectiveness with vendor-provided interfaces. Practical implications - Working with tools already in hand libraries can improve the accessibility of electronic resources by crafting simpler user interfaces. Originality/value - The paper shows libraries how they can leverage their investment in databases and the catalog not only to make them more useful to their user communities, but to bring them more in tune with the expectations of users who have grown up with the web.

- Abstract
- Purpose - To introduce the special theme issue on "Content management systems". Design/methodology/approach - Each of the articles in the theme are described in brief. Findings - The articles cover a range of topics from implementation to interoperability, object-oriented database management systems, and research about meeting user needs. Originality/value - Libraries have only just begun to realize that their web presence is potentially as rich and complex as their online catalogs, and that it needs an equal amount of management to keep it under control.

- Abstract
- Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to report on the content management solution for 50 subject guides maintained by librarian subject specialists at the University of Nevada, Reno Libraries. Design/methodology/approach - The Web Development Librarian designed an SQL Server database to store subject guide content and wrote ASP.Net scripts to generate dynamic web pages. Subject specialists provided input throughout the process. Hands-on workshops were held the summer before the new guides were launched. Findings - The new method has successfully produced consistent but individually customized subject guides while greatly reducing maintenance time. Simple reports reveal the association between guides and licensed resources. Using the system to create course-specific guides would be a useful follow-up project. Skills learned in training workshops should be refreshed at regular intervals to boost confidence and introduce changes in the system. Practical implications - The advantages of centralizing content and separating it from presentation cannot be overstated. More consistency and less maintenance is just the beginning. Once accomplished, a library can incorporate Web 2.0 features into the application by repurposing the data or modifying the ASP.Net template. The now-organized data is clean and ready to migrate to web services or next-generation research guides when the time is right. Originality/value - This paper uniquely reports on an SQL Server, ASP.Net solution for managing subject guides. SQL Server includes data management features that increase application security and ASP.Net offers built-in functionality for manipulating and presenting data. Utmost attention was given to creating simple user interfaces that enable subject specialists to create complex web pages without coding HTML.
