47_t2_ {
48Greenstone is a suite of software for building and distributing digital
49library collections. It provides a new way of organizing information and
50publishing it on the Internet or on CD-ROM. Greenstone is produced by the
51<b>New Zealand Digital Library Project</b> at the <b>University of
52Waikato</b>, and developed and distributed in cooperation with
53<b>UNESCO</b> and the <b>Human Info NGO</b>. It is <b>open-source,
54multilingual</b> software, issued under the terms of the GNU General Public
55License. Read the <a href="_httppagex_(factsheet)">Greenstone Fact Sheet</a> for more information.

108The Greenstone Librarian Interface (GLI),
109an easy-to-use frontend to Greenstone's collection-building
110functionality, has been extensively user tested and debugged.
111If you haven't already tried it, now is a great
112time to do so (and if you ran into problems before, please try this new version).
113Greenstone 2.50 also includes the new (and already very popular) PagedImgPlug plugin for
114processing sequences of page images, a new classifier that displays a
115collage of the images in a collection, provision for incremental updates
116of Greenstone in the future, and many other bug fixes and improvements.
117}
118
119_t5_ {
120One of the trickier parts of using Greenstone is coming up with a
121configuration file for your collection. To help learn how to do it,
122several fully-documented example collections have been placed at <a
123href="http://nzdl.org">nzdl.org</a> which explain, on the collection home page, just how they have been put together.
124}
125
126_t6_ {
127The complete Greenstone interface, and all documentation, is available in
128<b>English</b>, <b>French</b>, <b>Spanish</b>, <b>Russian</b> and
129<b>Kazakh</b>. Greenstone also has interfaces in many <a
130href="_httppagex_(intn)">other languages</a>. We are looking for <a
131href="_httppagex_(intn)#maintainers">volunteers</a> to add new language
132interfaces and help maintain existing ones.
133}
134
135_t7_ {
136The aim of the Greenstone software is to empower users, particularly in universities,
137libraries, and other public service institutions, to build their own
138digital libraries. Digital libraries are radically reforming how
139information is disseminated and acquired in UNESCO's partner communities
140and institutions in the fields of education, science and culture around the
141world, and particularly in developing countries. We hope that this
142software will encourage the effective deployment of digital libraries to
143share information and place it in the public domain. Further information
144can be found in the book <a href="http://www.nzdl.org/howto">How to build a
145digital library</a>, authored by two of the group's project members.

1054_t326_ {
1055There are two methods for working with Greenstone language interface (apart
1056from editing the macro files directly, which is not recommended).
1057}
1058
1059_t327_ {Spreadsheet}
1060
1061_t328_ {
1062We send you an Excel spreadsheet that contains all the English text
1063strings, with empty cells for the translation. You fill it in and return
1064it, and we install it in Greenstone. This method is probably the best for
1065large-scale translation, but requires Microsoft software.
1066}
1067
1068_t329_ {Greenstone Translator's Interface}
1069
1070_t330_ {
1071The Greenstone translator's interface is a Web tool that presents the
1072English text strings needing translation, and provides boxes for entering
1073the translated text. Once submitted, translations are stored in the
1074appropriate language file. The system automatically determines which text
1075strings need translating or updating, and can easily be used to update a
1076language interface.
1077}
1078
1079_t331_ {
1080Generally it is best to use the spreadsheet to create the basic interface
1081and the translation interface to fine tune or update it in the future. In
1082either case you need a username and password, which we supply to designated
1083Greenstone language maintainers.
1084}
1085
1086_t331extra_ {If you are interested, you can play with
1087an open version of the system by logging into <a
1088href="http://www.nzdl.org/cgi-bin/translate/library">this page</a> with
1089username "guest" and no password, though if you do this you cannot save the
1090results.
1091}
1092
1093_t332_ {
1094To register as a designated Greenstone language maintainer, please send a
1095request to Michael Dewsnip (<a
1096href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>). As
1097soon as you receive your password please change it by going to <a
1098href="http://www.nzdl.org/cgi-bin/translate/library">this page</a>,
1099choosing the administration option, clicking the "change password" option
1100on the left hand side, and following the instructions.
1101}
1102
1103_t333_ {
1104As soon as you log in, the front page of the translator's interface is
1105presented to you. Read the instructions and start translating! You don't
1106have to translate all the strings in one session -- you can stop and
1107continue work later. There is a link at the bottom of each page under the
1108"submit" button that allows you to view a Greenstone site in the language
1109you have chosen, and see your translations take effect. (However, the
1110images are not yet created as you go.)

1113_t334_ {Language-dependent text in Greenstone}
1114
1115_t335_ {
1116For your information and interest, the language-dependent text in
1117Greenstone comes in these places. We do not attempt to translate the
1118comments that appear in program code, scripts, or configuration files. Our
1119guideline is that non-programming users doing standard things with
1120Greenstone should be able to work entirely in their own language.
