Extractions: Main Last week University Librarian Joanne Eustis and I attended the semi-annual meeting of the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) in Washington, DC. These meetings always feature a wide array of updates on what libraries are doing in the way of networked information and digital library projects. They also always feature sessions on emerging technologies and standards as well as some thought provoking sessions that may not have immediate applicability to libraries. The opening plenary session of last week's meeting featured representatives from the so-called "Google Five" the libraries with whom Google has negotiated agreements to digitize all or large parts of their libraries. These libraries are Stanford Harvard University of Michigan New York Public Library and Oxford University's Bodleian Library . A press release about Oxford's arrangement can be found here . Information about Stanford's project is here The libraries are all under strict non-disclosure agreements with Google, so there was not a wealth of information divulged. The amount of material to be digitized at the libraries seems to range from "pretty much everything" at Michigan to "a tasty selection in the tens of thousands of volumes" at New York Public. It was clear that Google had done a "divide and conquer" move with these libraries, in that they each did not know who else was involved in negotiations until they read it in the news release.

Extractions: Clifford Lynch, President, CNI Dr. Lynch introduced CNI (http://www.cni.org) and its program. The goal is to advance scholarship and intellectual creativity through networking and technology. CNI was formed in 1990 by three main sponsors, the Association of Research Libraries, CAUSE, and EDUCOM. There are now over 200 institutional members, predominantly institutions of higher education. However, there are others including information providers, state libraries, publishers, and library associations. All are concerned about the impact of networking on education. Through its broad membership, CNI has been an effective incubator for projects, particularly with publishers and information providers. No one worried about policies and content when networking was first developing. Now there are four major areas in which CNI is involved: 1) general advocacy about networked information, 2) content and organization on the Internet, 3) organization and professional issues, including strategies and best practices, and 4) standards and infrastructure.

What's New IMS forms alliance with Coalition for Networked Information (CNI). Collaboration tofurther interoperability in digital libraries and learning object http://www.colis.mq.edu.au/cni.htm
Extractions: Collaboration to further interoperability in digital libraries and learning object repositories Burlington, Mass. - March 13, 2003 - IMS Global Learning Consortium (IMS) today announced a working alliance between IMS and CNI to explore the development of common architectural and functional models leading to joint specifications and improved technical interoperability in the rapidly evolving areas of digital libraries and learning object repositories. Professor Neil McLean, Director of IMS Australia and a member of the IMS Board of Directors, is leading the initiative on behalf of IMS. He said, "The reaching out to the library community and to all those involved in digital asset management within institutions marks an important milestone in the evolution of IMS. CNI, which brings together the information technology and library communities, is an ideal partner for this effort." Neil McLean went on to say, " The recently released IMS Digital Repository Interoperability Specification version 1.0 provides an excellent framework for the consultation exercise and it should provide a platform for further technical specifications." Dr. Clifford Lynch, Executive Director of CNI, observed, "This is a very timely collaboration as higher education institutions try to sort through both the technical and organizational challenges of a landscape that is being transformed by new developments such as learning management systems and institutional repositories. The portfolio of IMS standards, and the architectural work that they have advanced over the last few years will be an essential basis for addressing these challenges."
