-<h4>The NZDL system</h4>
 
-<p> The New Zealand Digital Library system comprises several demonstration
-collections -- computer science technical reports and bibliographies, literary
-works, humanitarian and development information, magazines -- and makes them
-available over the Web through full-text interfaces.  Behind the query
-interface lies a huge collection providing gigabytes of information.  We hope
-you find what you want, or at least something intriguing!
 
-<h4>The Greenstone software</h4>
 
-<p> The Greenstone Digital Library software provides a new way of organizing
-information and making it available over the Internet.  A <i>collection</i> of
-information comprises several (typically several thousand, or even several
-million) <i>documents</i>, which share a uniform searching and browsing
-interface.  The collections in a library are organized in a different
-way--though they share a strong family resemblance.  Although primarily
-designed for access over the Web, Greenstone collections can be made available,
-in precisely the same form, on CD-ROM for standalone PCs.  Greenstone is
-open-source software, available under the terms of the Gnu public linense.
- 
-<h4>The research</h4>
 
-<p> The goal of our research program is to explore the potential of
-internet-based digital libraries.  Our vision is to develop systems that
-automatically impose structure on anarchic, uncatalogued, distributed
-repositories of information, thereby providing information consumers with
-effective tools to locate what they need and to peruse it conveniently and
-comfortably.  Our research objectives are to
-
-<ul>
-  <li> develop technology for creating and automatically
-      maintaining collections;
-  <li> monitor usage to study library users' needs;
-  <li> look at novel interfaces that cater to a wide spectrum of users;
-  <li> find ways to abstract layout and bibliographic information
-      from document files;
-  <li> use this information to enhance presentation and for
-      bibliometric research;
-  <li> assess potential subject areas for public-domain collections;
-  <li> survey and critique other digital library projects.
-</ul>

-Greenstone is a semi-precious stone that (like this software) is sourced in
-New Zealand.  In traditional Maori society it was the most highly prized and
-sought after of all substances.  It can absorb and hold <i>wairua</i>, which is
-a spirit or life force, and is endowed with traditional virtues that make it an
-appropriate emblem for a public-domain digital library project.  Its lustre
-shows charity; its translucence, honesty; its toughness, courage; and the sharp
-edge it can take, justice.  The carved piece used in the Greenstone Digital
-Library Software logo is a <i>patu</i> or fighting club, and is a family
-heirloom of one of our project members.  In hand-to-hand combat its delivery is
-very quick, very accurate, and very complete.  We like to think these qualities
-also apply to our software, the razor sharp edge of the <i>patu</i> symbolizing
-the leading edge of technology.
