The Monticello Project design considerations for a virtual library
This paper describes a design for a system that facilitates the discovery and retrieval of resources in a distributed, heterogeneous information environment. The primary elements of this design are database and interface tools and a high-level semantic description based on the Dublin Core element set. This framework provides a model of navigation that supports the process of discovery with predictable access points into differing collections of information. This design provides the basis of SOLINET's Monticello Electronic Library Project, designed to link distributed regional resources regardless of the source or type of information.
