NOTE: Added on 3/10/04:
Digital libraries refers to "Anything related to web, digitization, and digital projects in libraries, as well as "digital" libraries, i.e. libraries that exist virtually or offer various services digitally. We are broadening the scope of the journal. Just about anything related to digital in libraries is encouraged. --
