Abstract

This article presents information on a digital library project called the Chemistry Online Retrieval Experiment (CORE). The CORE project is an electronic library of primary journal articles in chemistry published by the American Chemical Society. Unlike many digital library projects, CORE includes both a scanned image and a marked-up American Standard Code for Information Interchange version for each page of the publisher's database. Each page image was stored as a 300dpi bitonal image for printing and 100dpi greyscale for screen display. The author stressed that managing a 80 gigabytes of data from a single publisher, in one format and in one subject area should not be underestimated. Complex scientific material presents substantial problems for representation and display, especially when the material is being converted from previously published information. According to preliminary user studies, CORE users search more effectively with computers that with paper indexes; read and absorb content as effectively with computer displays as on paper; wish to organize their own display screen, forcing the interface designers to yield control of the exact placement of interface elements; have a wide range of experience and expertise in online information systems; and make extensive use of thumbnail-sized versions of the figures in the articles of browsing.
