50Greenstone is a suite of software for building and distributing digital
51library collections. It provides a new way of organizing information and
52publishing it on the Internet or on CD-ROM. Greenstone is produced by the

54Waikato</b>, and developed and distributed in cooperation with
55<b>UNESCO</b> and the <b>Human Info NGO</b>. It is <b>open-source,

93<i>(Oct 26)</i> Building collections on a remote Greenstone server<br />
94This scheme allows users to augment and edit collections that are held on a remote Greenstone server. Users work with a modified version of the Greenstone Librarian Interface but do not need to have Greenstone running locally. Multiple users can collaborate on the same collection (though not at the same time). <a href="http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/~mdewsnip/greenstone/west-yorkshire/remote-greenstone.html">Here</a> are details of an experimental version that you can download (<a href="http://prdownload.berlios.de/gsdl-esdoc/gsdlremoto.pdf">En Español</a>).

This is our research version and is still incomplete; the production version (Greenstone 2) is recommended for almost all users (and is still being developed and improved). Greenstone 3 will serve existing collections without any change whatsoever, so there is no danger of becoming out-moded by continuing with Greenstone 2. <a href="http://www.greenstone.org/greenstone3.html">Greenstone 3 home page</a>.

112The Greenstone Librarian Interface (GLI),
113an easy-to-use frontend to Greenstone's collection-building
114functionality, has been extensively user tested and debugged.
115If you haven't already tried it, now is a great
116time to do so (and if you ran into problems before, please try this new version).
117Greenstone 2.50 also includes the new (and already very popular) PagedImgPlug plugin for
118processing sequences of page images, a new classifier that displays a
119collage of the images in a collection, provision for incremental updates
120of Greenstone in the future, and many other bug fixes and improvements.
121}
122
123_t5_ {
124One of the trickier parts of using Greenstone is coming up with a
125configuration file for your collection. To help learn how to do it,
126several fully-documented example collections have been placed at <a
127href="http://nzdl.org">nzdl.org</a> which explain, on the collection home page, just how they have been put together.
128}

131The complete Greenstone interface, and all documentation, is available in
132<b>English</b>, <b>French</b>, <b>Spanish</b>, <b>Russian</b> and

134href="_httpwikiintn_">other languages</a>. We are looking for <a

140The aim of the Greenstone software is to empower users, particularly in universities,
141libraries, and other public service institutions, to build their own
142digital libraries. Digital libraries are radically reforming how
143information is disseminated and acquired in UNESCO's partner communities
144and institutions in the fields of education, science and culture around the
145world, and particularly in developing countries. We hope that this
146software will encourage the effective deployment of digital libraries to
147share information and place it in the public domain. Further information
148can be found in the book <a href="http://www.nzdl.org/howto">How to build a
149digital library</a>, authored by two of the group's members.
