IMAGELIB is an unmoderated bulletin board for the discussion of image databases. While originally intended to address issues related to libraries, IMAGELIB's scope expanded to meet the wide range of interests brought by its subscribers.IMAGELIB's purpose is to raise questions, solicit input, and share ideas. It is not intended to duplicate other lists nor to engage in technical discussions, such as World Wide Web server development and administration.
For this listserv, topics for discussions range from:
1. Accessing, retrieving, and displaying images from the Internet: preferences for particular interfaces, organizing directories on local servers, and preferences for particular clients.
2. Creating local image databases: scanning photographic and slide collections of scholarly value or regional significance; full-text.
3. Exploring issues such as copyright, permissions, and fair use.
4. Working with users to incorporate image databases in their courses and research. Sharing success stories and asking for advice.
