Art section on Digital Libraries and a new focus on areas related
to information retrieval systems covering such topics as electronic
publishing of journals and other scientific materials, emerging
standards, open access publishing issues, digital preservation,

of information that is now available. Web updates, which include
keeping track of new systems, technologies, studies, are folded
into the third edition to show the advancement from 1996 to present
time.
