  Arms, C.R.: Available and useful : OAI at the Library of Congress.
  In: Library hi tech. 21(2003) no.2, S.129-139.
  
  Abstract: The Library of Congress (LC) was an early adopter of the OAI Protocol for Metadata Harvesting. The protocol allows LC to make digitized historical collections available for integration into other services. The protocol was straightforward to implement and the harvesting traffic has no perceptible effect on the primary users of the American Memory project. Now that services can integrate records for cultural heritage resources from many sources, it is time to build on that experience to develop better services. How should the scarce resources available to produce metadata be deployed to most advantage to support discovery in different contexts? How might metadata harvesting be exploited to support new interfaces and enhanced navigation among related resources in digital libraries? This article starts a conversation between metadata providers and service builders by describing LC's experience and questions that have surfaced.

  Arms, C.R.: Getting the picture : observations from the Library of Congress on providing online access to pictorial images.
  In: Library trends. 48(1999) no.2, S.379-409.
  
  Abstract: Over the last few years, the Library of Congress (LC) has increasingly created digital reproductions of visual materials to enhance access to its resources. Digitization is now a mainstream activity in the Prints and Photographs Division (P & P) and the Geography and Maps Division (G & M). Both divisions work closely with the National Digital Library Program to make their incomparable resources accessible over the Internet to the general public through the American Memory Web site (http://memory.loc.gov/). They also use the digital images to serve their more traditional clientele in the reading rooms. Retrieval from a collection of digital images offers special opportunities to apply new technological advances, as illustrated elsewhere in this issue. However, retrieval often takes place in broader contexts. The Print and Photographs Division seeks to enhance access to its international pictorial holdings, whether digitized or not. Within American Memory, the focus is on retrieval by the nonspecialist from a body of materials related to the history and culture of the United States, materials heterogeneous in both original and digital form. A yet broader context is retrieval from the comprehensive collections of the entire Library of Congress. Beyond enabling retrieval, LC is concerned with facilitating use of the materials retrieved, consistent with any associated rights. This article describes selected aspects of LC's practical experience and current practices from digital capture through interactions with users, with an emphasis on the integration of access to pictorial images online with other services and activities at LC.

  In: Online. 14(1990) no.5, S.24-29.
  
  Abstract: Promotes the use of the national telecommunications networks, by librarians, to enable them to act as guides to the emerging infrastructure of machine readable information. Suggests, as a first step, the promotion of electronic mail and electronic bulletin boards. Describes procedures such as the downloading of files on BITNET and Internet; and logging on to remote systems, on-line catalogues and local data bases via Internet.
