CFP: OCLC Systems and Services: International Digital Library Perspectives

CFP: OCLC Systems and Services: International Digital Library Perspectives

_OCLC Systems & Services: International Digital Library Perspectives_ will be publishing a special issue on open source development of digital tools and services. The editor is looking for articles that articulate the development processes (planning, scripting, testing, marketing,
dissemination, etc.) of various digital tools and services related to digital projects, grants, digitization, and collaborative and cooperative endeavors. Tools and services developed to reduce redundancies, create efficiencies in workflow, and allow for ingesting or exporting of data and/or manipulation of data for users are especially encouraged. Articles can be of any length, and figures and screen shots are encouraged. OSS: IDLP is a peer-reviewed journal.

If you are interested in contributing, please send the editor your name, a short proposal of the topic, and a tentative title for the article. Deadline for proposals is March 1, 2009. Articles would be due to the editor by August 1, 2009. Any questions can be directed to the editor.
Thank you.
