Abstract

The first six months of the University of Illinois IMLS Digital Collections and Content project were spent refining project planning, hiring staff, purchasing and configuring project servers and workstations, forming a project steering committee, creating a project Web site, and developing a project evaluation plan. Other activities included reviewing information about more than 90 relevant National Leadership Grant (NLG) projects, creating documents for prioritizing and tracking interactions with grantees, disseminating information to grantees, creating survey instruments, and implementing a simple item-level metadata repository for preliminary testing. We also reviewed community collection metadata schemes, drafted a project-specific collection metadata scheme, and refined and began work on our three-year research plan.
