A Model and Research Agenda for Educational Community-based Digital Libraries: The Digital Library for Earth System Education*
Mary R. Marlino, Tamara Sumner · 2003
While digital library development has greatly advanced in the past five years, there is as yet little research demonstrating the efficacy of digital library technology on teaching and learning. This paper presents an initial articulation of a model of the critical dimensions of digital library implementation in educational settings, based on the development of the Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE). It also suggests how such a model may contribute to an understanding of how digital libraries are used and valued. 1
