Personal Digital Libraries: a Self-Archiving Approach

Archives

This article examines how Personal Digital Libraries (PDL) serve as a self-archiving approach that is based majorly on individuals' activities. The main questions that the text focuses on are, "What are the critical features of PDL?" and "Are there technologies that enable the implementation/incorporation of such capabilities in a lost cost software product?". The text conveys the design, methodology, and approach they used to answer the stated questions. It also discusses the capabilities that PDL should support and also provides a description of the experimentation including a prototype implemented to clarify their perception for the creation of PDL that supports PDL capabilities.
