Subject: [CNI-ANNOUNCE] A cornucopia of good stuff from RLG and
collaborators

The folks at the Research Libraries Group have made a great deal of 
interesting material available over the past few weeks, and I wanted 
to share pointers to some of it  here.

There's a survey of some RLG members on expectations and issues 
related to Metasearch which provides a somewhat different picture of 
the prospects for metasearch than some other work I've seen. This is 
at

There are materials available from the talks at the July 2005 RLG 
member's forum on collaboration among libraries, museums and 
archives. This is at

http://www.rlg.org/en/page.php?Page_ID=20521

Materials from the May 2005 meeting on International Archival 
Gateways can be found here:

The latest (August 15, 2005) issue of RLG Diginews, at 
http://www.rlg.org/en/page.php?Page_ID=20744
is full of good material on digital preservation, including a very 
interesting piece highlighting ten digital preservation initiatives 
that they believe are particularly worth watching.

Finally there's an RLG group blog that's at 
http://www.hangingtogether.org/  which also has some very useful 
commentary.

Hope that CNI-announce readers find these pointers useful.
