Digital Libraries according to Levy & Marshall
Digital Libraries according to Levy & Marshall
Documents
Contain fixed permanent documents with potentially a changing rate of change and varying duration meaning that they can be permanent or transient depending on the format and content or how highly ephemeral it is

Digital libraries are based on digital technologies but in reality all libraries are quasi-digital with integrations into huge paper collections.
One is beginning to observe that more of the holdings are digital but the coexisting model continues to be that of a blended hybrid.

Digital libraries are to be used by individuals working alone - images prevail that both library users and library staff or service providers work independently even though we consider learning in libraries and serving them to be very collaborative experiences.

Triggers according to GilchristTriggers according to Gilchrist Information overload
search engines are challenged to effectively handle fulltext coverage of already large databases
Information literacy users are not always effective searchers leading to less than
helpful retrieval Organizational terminology
keyword searching has assumed the preferred method of searching over thesauri verification or other methods of controlled vocabularies and descriptors
"Destructuring" of organizations the fast-paced structure of the information industry in recent
years suggests confusion and how users co-mingle sources of information
