    "Brüssel. Die erste gemeinsame Online-Bibliothek der Europäischen Union ist nach nur wenigen Stunden wegen technischer Probleme wieder abgeschaltet worden. Ein unerwarteter Besucheransturm legte das Portal www.europeana.eu lahm, sagte ein Sprecher der EU-Kommission am Freitag in Brüssel. Die 20 Millionen Klicks pro Stunde habe die Seite nicht verkraftet. "Wir waren ausgerüstet für fünf Millionen Klicks", begründete der Sprecher die Panne. Spätestens bis Mitte Dezember soll die Seite wieder zur Verfügung stehen. Zuvor müsse zusätzliche Computerkapazität im Rechenzentrum der Universität Amsterdam angemietet werden. Bereits am Donnerstagmittag war die Zahl der Server von drei auf sechs verdoppelt worden, nachdem die Seite bereits in den ersten Stunden nach der Freischaltung vorübergehend zusammengebrochen war. "Die Kosten können noch aus dem Budget der Europeana abgedeckt werden", sagte der Sprecher. Europeana macht Dokumente, Bücher, Gemälde, Filme und Fotografien aus europäischen Sammlungen kostenlos im Internet zugänglich. Bisher sind dort knapp drei Millionen Objekte eingestellt, bis 2010 sollen es zehn Millionen sein. Mehr als 1000 Archive, Museen und Bibliotheken haben bereits digitalisiertes Material geliefert. Die Kommission stellt zwei Millionen Euro pro Jahr für den Unterhalt der Plattform bereit. Die Kosten für die Digitalisierung tragen die Mitgliedstaaten."

    "Die Europäische Union hat zum ersten Mal eine gemeinsame digitale Bibliothek. Auf dem Internetportal www.europeana.eu stehen seit Donnerstag fast drei Millionen Dokumente, Bücher, Gemälde,Filme und Fotografien aus europäischen Sammlungen zur Verfügung, teilte die EU-Kommission mit. Bereits in den ersten Stunden nach der Freischaltung besuchten mehr als zehn Millionen Internetnutzer die Seite, die vorübergehend zusammenbrach. Die Zahl der Server wurde daraufhin von drei auf sechs verdoppelt. "Wir hätten uns in unseren kühnsten Träumen nicht vorstellen können, dass es einen solchen Ansturm auf Europeana gibt", sagte EU-Medienkommissarin Viviane Reding in Brüssel. Bis 2010 sollen auf dem Portal zehn Millionen Objekte in allen EU-Sprachen abrufbar sein. Mehr als 1000 Archive, Museen und Bibliotheken lieferten bereits digitalisiertes Material. Die Kommission stellt zwei Millionen Euro pro Jahr für den Unterhalt der Plattform bereit. Die Kosten für die Digitalisierung tragen die Mitgliedstaaten. Bisher ist nur ein Prozent aller europäischen Kulturgüter elektronisch verfügbar. Um die angestrebte Zahl von zehn Millionen Werken bis 2010 zu erreichen, müssen die Staaten nach Schätzung der Kommission zusammen weitere 350 Millionen Euro in die Hand nehmen. Wie viel die Mitgliedstaaten bisher aufbrachten, blieb offen. Die EU will die Erforschung und Entwicklung von Technologien in dem Bereich in den kommenden zwei Jahren mit 119 Millionen Euro fördern. Die EU-Kulturminister sprachen sich dafür aus, das kulturelle Angebot im Internet weiter auszubauen und gleichzeitig ihren Kampf gegen Online-Piraterie zu verstärken. "Wir wollen legale glaubwürdige Angebote für Verbraucher schaffen", sagte die französische Ressortchefin Christine Albanel, die derzeit die Ministerrunde führt"

    Abstract
    Eine ganze Anzahl von Bibliotheken in Europa befaßt sich mit der Entwicklung von Internet Subject Gateways - einer Serviceleistung, die den Nutzern helfen soll, qualitativ hochwertige Internetquellen zu finden. Subject Gateways wie SOSIG (The Social Science Information Gateway) sind bereits seit einigen Jahren im Internet verfügbar und stellen eine Alternative zu Internet-Suchmaschinen wie AltaVista und Verzeichnissen wie Yahoo dar. Bezeichnenderweise stützen sich Subject Gateways auf die Fertigkeiten, Verfahrensweisen und Standards der internationalen Bibliothekswelt und wenden diese auf Informationen aus dem Internet an. Dieses Referat will daher betonen, daß Bibliothekare/innen idealerweise eine vorherrschende Rolle im Aufbau von Suchservices für Internetquellen spielen und daß Information Gateways eine Möglichkeit dafür darstellen. Es wird einige der Subject Gateway-Initiativen in Europa umreißen und die Werkzeuge und Technologien beschreiben, die vom Projekt DESIRE entwickelt wurden, um die Entwicklung neuer Gateways in anderen Ländern zu unterstützen. Es wird auch erörtert, wie IMesh, eine Gruppe für Gateways aus der ganzen Welt eine internationale Strategie für Gateways anstrebt und versucht, Standards zur Umsetzung dieses Projekts zu entwickeln

    "Die Bestände von rund 30.000 deutschen Kulturinstitutionen sollen als Online-Kopie zukünftig in der Deutschen Digitalen Bibliothek (DDB) zu finden sein. Doch dahin scheint es noch ein langer Weg zu sein: Das Online-Portal läuft bislang nur im internen Testbetrieb. Und die öffentliche Hand kann den Aufwand für die Digitalisierung der ganzen Werke kaum alleine stemmen, wie Kulturstaatsminister Bernd Neumann (CDU) bereits mehrfach betonte. Um die Verwandlung von gemeinfreien Kulturgütern in Bits und Bytes schneller voranzubringen, sollte über eine im April 2011 veröffentlichte Ausschreibung ein großes Unternehmen als Digitalisierungspartner gewonnen werden. Der Konzessionsinhaber hätte dann die Rahmenvereinbarung abnicken und auf dieser Basis die Verträge mit den einzelnen Kulturinstitutionen aushandeln müssen. Bei der Digitalisierung hätte der potentielle Partner aus der Wirtschaft der jeweiligen Einrichtung eine digitale Kopie überlassen müssen und ein nicht-exklusives Verwertungsrecht an der eigenen Kopie erhalten - all das auf "eigenes wirtschaftliches Risiko". Informierten Kreisen zufolge war diese Ausschreibung von vornherein auf den Suchmaschinenriesen Google zugeschnitten. Der kooperiert seit 2007 mit der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek und digitalisiert auf eigene Kosten urheberrechtsfreie Bücher aus deren Beständen. Man ging wohl davon aus, dass sich Google aus Imagegründen auch für die unattraktiv gestaltete Lizenz zur deutschlandweiten Digitalisierung interessieren würde - was aber nicht der Fall war. Stattdessen musste die Ausschreibung mangels passender Bewerber erfolglos zurückgezogen werden, wie im Juni 2012 bekannt gemacht wurde. Neue Ausschreibungen für exklusive Partnerschaften soll es laut der Pressestelle des Kulturstaatsminister nicht geben, aber einzelne Kooperationen mit verschiedenen Unternehmen. Hier sollen bereits Verhandlungen mit nicht weiter benannten Interessenten laufen.
    Immer wieder in die Kritik gerät die angesetzte Finanzierung der DDB: So sind seit 2011 jährlich 2,6 Millionen Euro für den Betrieb der Plattform vorgesehen, für die Digitalisierung von Inhalten stehen aber keine direkten Bundesmittel zur Verfügung. Dr. Ellen Euler zufolge, der Geschäftsführerin der Deutschen Digitalen Bibliothek, seien Aufstockungen zumindest im Gespräch. Von den Dimensionen der 750 Millionen Euro, die der damalige französische Premier Nicholas Sarkozy für die Digitalisierung in seinem Land zusagte, dürfte man jedoch noch weit entfernt sein. Derzeit wird die Digitalisierung der Inhalte vor allem von den Ländern und den ihnen unterstellten Einrichtungen vorangetrieben. So plant etwa das Land Berlin laut einer parlamentarischen Anfrage (PDF-Datei) 2012 und 2013 jeweils 900.000 Euro für ein eigenes "Kompetenzzentrum Digitalisierung" bereitzustellen, das die Arbeit von Bibliotheken, Archiven und Museen koordinieren soll. Inwgesamt richte sich ein Großteil der Bemühungen der Länder auf vom Verfall bedrohte Bestände, wie Dr. Euler verriet. Eine übergreifende Strategie seitens der Bundesregierung, wie sie auch von der Opposition gefordert wurde, gibt es derzeit nicht.
    Der Anfang des Jahres vom Bundestag beschlossene Antrag für eine "Digitalisierungsoffensive" (PDF-Datei) überlässt es "vor allem auch Angebot und Nachfrage", was digitalisiert wird. Für den Ausgleich der Interessen sollen dabei das Kompetenznetzwerk Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek sorgen, in dem 13 große Einrichtungen vertreten sind, sowie ein Kuratorium mit Vertretern aus Bund, Länder und Kommunen. Immerhin plant die DDB laut Euler ein zentrales Register, mit dem die verschiedenen Institutionen ihre Vorhaben abgleichen könnten, um unnötige Doppeldigitalisierungen zu vermeiden. Nach wie vor offen ist auch noch, wann die Beta-Version der DDB nun endlich öffentlich zugänglich gemacht wird: Ursprünglich für Ende 2011 angekündigt, nennt die Webseite des Kulturstaatsministers zur Stunde noch das inzwischen abgelaufene zweite Quartal 2012 als Starttermin. Dr. Euler von der DDB sprach vom Herbst 2012, im September werde möglicherweise ein konkreter Termin bekanntgegeben."

    Abstract
    With the development of the World Wide Web, the "information search" has grown to be a significant business sector of a global, competitive and commercial market. Powerful players have entered this market, such as commercial internet search engines, information portals, multinational publishers and online content integrators. Will Google, Yahoo or Microsoft be the only portals to global knowledge in 2010? If libraries do not want to become marginalized in a key area of their traditional services, they need to acknowledge the challenges that come with the globalisation of scholarly information, the existence and further growth of the academic internet

    Abstract
    The concept for the German Digital Libraries Program is imbedded in the Information Infrastructure Program of the German Federal Government for the years 1996-2000 which has been explicated in the Program Paper entitled "Information as Raw Material for Innovation".3 The Program Paper was published 1996 by the Federal Ministry for Education, Research, and Technology. The actual grants program "Global Info" was initiated by the Information and Communication Commission of the Joint Learned Societies to further technological advancement in enabling all researchers in Germany direct access to literature, research results, and other relevant information. This Commission was founded by four of the learned societies in 1995, and it has sponsored a series of workshops to increase awareness of leading edge technology and innovations in accessing electronic information sources. Now, nine of the leading research-level learned societies -- often those with umbrella responsibilities for other learned societies in their field -- are members of the Information and Communication Commission and represent the mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists, chemists, educational researchers, sociologists, psychologists, biologists and information technologists in the German Association of Engineers. (The German professional librarian societies are not members, as such, of this Commission, but are represented through delegates from libraries in the learned societies and in the future, hopefully, also by the German Association of Documentalists or through the cooperation between the documentalist and librarian professional societies.) The Federal Ministry earmarked 60 Million German Marks for projects within the framework of the German Digital Libraries Program in two phases over the next six years. The scope for the German Digital Libraries Program was announced in a press release in April 1997,4 and the first call for preliminary projects and expressions of interest in participation ended in July 1997. The Consortium members were suggested by the Information and Communication Commission of the Learned Societies (IuK Kommission), by key scientific research funding agencies in the German government, and by the publishers themselves. The first official meeting of the participants took place on December 1, 1997, at the Deutsche Bibliothek, located in the renowned center of German book trade, Frankfurt, thus documenting the active role and participation of libraries and publishers. In contrast to the Digital Libraries Project of the National Science Foundation in the United States, the German Digital Libraries project is based on furthering cooperation with universities, scientific publishing houses (including various international publishers), book dealers, and special subject information centers, as well as academic and research libraries. The goals of the German Digital Libraries Project are to achieve: 1) efficient access to world wide information; 2) directly from the scientist's desktop; 3) while providing the organization for and stimulating fundamental structural changes in the information and communication process of the scientific community.

    Abstract
    Do a search on AltaVista for "algebra". What do you get? Nearly 700,000 hits, of which AltaVista will allow you to view only what it determines is the top 200. Major search engines such as AltaVista, Excite, HotBot, Lycos, and the like continue to provide a valuable service, but with the recent growth of the Internet, topic-specific sites that provide some organization to the topic are increasingly important. It the goal of the Mathematics Archives to make it easier for the ordinary user to find useful mathematical information on the Web. The Mathematics Archives (http://archives.math.utk.edu) is a multipurpose site for mathematics on the Internet. The focus is on materials which can be used in mathematics education (primarily at the undergraduate level). Resources available range from shareware and public domain software to electronic proceedings of various conferences, to an extensive collection of annotated links to other mathematical sites. All materials on the Archives are categorized and cross referenced for the convenience of the user. Several search mechanisms are provided. The Harvest search engine is implemented to provide a full text search of most of the pages on the Archives. The software we house and our list of annotated links to mathematical sites are both categorized by subject matter. Each of these collections has a specialized search engine to assist the user in locating desired material. Services at the Mathematics Archives are divided up into five broad topics: * Links organized by Mathematical Topics * Software * Teaching Materials * Other Math Archives Features * Other Links

    Abstract
    The Internet would not be very useful if communication were limited to textual exchanges between speakers of English located in the United States. Rather, its value lies in its ability to enable people from multiple nations, speaking multiple languages, to employ multiple media in interacting with each other. While computer networks broke through national boundaries long ago, they remain much more effective for textual communication than for exchanges of sound, images, or mixed media -- and more effective for communication in English than for exchanges in most other languages, much less interactions involving multiple languages. Supporting searching and display in multiple languages is an increasingly important issue for all digital libraries accessible on the Internet. Even if a digital library contains materials in only one language, the content needs to be searchable and displayable on computers in countries speaking other languages. We need to exchange data between digital libraries, whether in a single language or in multiple languages. Data exchanges may be large batch updates or interactive hyperlinks. In any of these cases, character sets must be represented in a consistent manner if exchanges are to succeed. Issues of interoperability, portability, and data exchange related to multi-lingual character sets have received surprisingly little attention in the digital library community or in discussions of standards for information infrastructure, except in Europe. The landmark collection of papers on Standards Policy for Information Infrastructure, for example, contains no discussion of multi-lingual issues except for a passing reference to the Unicode standard. The goal of this short essay is to draw attention to the multi-lingual issues involved in designing digital libraries accessible on the Internet. Many of the multi-lingual design issues parallel those of multi-media digital libraries, a topic more familiar to most readers of D-Lib Magazine. This essay draws examples from multi-media DLs to illustrate some of the urgent design challenges in creating a globally distributed network serving people who speak many languages other than English. First we introduce some general issues of medium, culture, and language, then discuss the design challenges in the transition from local to global systems, lastly addressing technical matters. The technical issues involve the choice of character sets to represent languages, similar to the choices made in representing images or sound. However, the scale of the language problem is far greater. Standards for multi-media representation are being adopted fairly rapidly, in parallel with the availability of multi-media content in electronic form. By contrast, we have hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of years worth of textual materials in hundreds of languages, created long before data encoding standards existed. Textual content from past and present is being encoded in language and application-specific representations that are difficult to exchange without losing data -- if they exchange at all. We illustrate the multi-language DL challenge with examples drawn from the research library community, which typically handles collections of materials in 400 or so languages. These are problems faced not only by developers of digital libraries, but by those who develop and manage any communication technology that crosses national or linguistic boundaries.

    Abstract
    This article describes the journey from the conception of and vision for a modern search-engine-based search environment to its technological realisation. In doing so, it takes up the thread of an earlier article on this subject, this time from a technical viewpoint. As well as presenting the conceptual considerations of the initial stages, this article will principally elucidate the technological aspects of this journey. The starting point for the deliberations about development of an academic search engine was the experience we gained through the generally successful project "Digital Library NRW", in which from 1998 to 2000-with Bielefeld University Library in overall charge-we designed a system model for an Internet-based library portal with an improved academic search environment at its core. At the heart of this system was a metasearch with an availability function, to which we added a user interface integrating all relevant source material for study and research. The deficiencies of this approach were felt soon after the system was launched in June 2001. There were problems with the stability and performance of the database retrieval system, with the integration of full-text documents and Internet pages, and with acceptance by users, because users are increasingly performing the searches themselves using search engines rather than going to the library for help in doing searches. Since a long list of problems are also encountered using commercial search engines for academic use (in particular the retrieval of academic information and long-term availability), the idea was born for a search engine configured specifically for academic use. We also hoped that with one single access point founded on improved search engine technology, we could access the heterogeneous academic resources of subject-based bibliographic databases, catalogues, electronic newspapers, document servers and academic web pages.

    Abstract
    The Electronic Cultural Atlas Initiative was formed to encourage scholarly communication and the sharing of data among researchers who emphasize the relationships between place, time, and topic in the study of culture and history. In an effort to develop better tools and practices, The Electronic Cultural Atlas Initiative has sponsored the collaborative development of software for downloading and editing geo-temporal data to create dynamic maps, a clearinghouse of shared datasets accessible through a map-based interface, projects on format and content standards for gazetteers and time period directories, studies to improve geo-temporal aspects in online catalogs, good practice guidelines for preparing e-publications with dynamic geo-temporal displays, and numerous international conferences. The Electronic Cultural Atlas Initiative (ECAI) grew out of discussions among an international group of scholars interested in religious history and area studies. It was established as a unit under the Dean of International and Area Studies at the University of California, Berkeley in 1997. ECAI's mission is to promote an international collaborative effort to transform humanities scholarship through use of the digital environment to share data and by placing greater emphasis on the notions of place and time. Professor Lewis Lancaster is the Director. Professor Michael Buckland, with a library and information studies background, joined the effort as Co-Director in 2000. Assistance from the Lilly Foundation, the California Digital Library (University of California), and other sources has enabled ECAI to nurture a community; to develop a catalog ("clearinghouse") of Internet-accessible georeferenced resources; to support the development of software for obtaining, editing, manipulating, and dynamically visualizing geo-temporally encoded data; and to undertake research and development projects as needs and resources determine. Several hundred scholars worldwide, from a wide range of disciplines, are informally affiliated with ECAI, all interested in shared use of historical and cultural data. The Academia Sinica (Taiwan), The British Library, and the Arts and Humanities Data Service (UK) are among the well-known affiliates. However, ECAI mainly comprises individual scholars and small teams working on their own small projects on a very wide range of cultural, social, and historical topics. Numerous specialist committees have been fostering standardization and collaboration by area and by themes such as trade-routes, cities, religion, and sacred sites.
