The paper discusses many of the available options, from the standpoint of a mid-sized academic library which is evaluating alternatives to static-HTML subject guides. Static HTML guides, while useful, have proven difficult and time-consuming to maintain. The article includes a discussion of open source database-driven solutions (such as SubjectsPlus, LibData, Research Guide, and Library Course Builder), Wikis, and social tagging sites like del.icio.us. This article discusses both the functionality and the relative strengths and weaknessess of each of these options. </p> http://connect.educause.edu/display/47021#comments Digital Libraries Digital Library Services Electronic Resources Library Information Systems Open Source The Code4Lib Journal Contributed by Organizations or Campuses Articles, Papers, and Reports Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:32:39 -0500 ckeller 47021 at http://connect.educause.edu
