摘要

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe the technological approach used by the DigitalrnLibrary of the Caribbean project to build an international collaborative library across many separaterninstitutions with varying degrees of expertise, technological abilities, and motivations.rnDesign methodology/approach - A freely-distributed digitization toolkit was developed to assistrnwith tracking and digitization of the distributed resources. In addition, on-site training was providedrnfor most partners and was open for anyone in the area to attend. The strong emphasis on branding andrnpresenting the same data within differently branded interfaces in the web presence encouraged greaterrnparticipation of international partners.rnFindings - Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), a joint project of the University of Florida,rnUniversity of Virgin Islands and Florida International University in partnership with institutions inrnthe Caribbean and circum-Caribbean, serves as the access point for scholars, students and citizens ofrninterdisciplinary Caribbean and circum-Caribbean research and gathers together a critical mass ofrncultural, historical and research materials originally held in archives, libraries and private collections.rnInvolving partners in the process of usability studies, as well as conducting internal usability studies,rnhave also assisted in the creation of a successful project web interface.rnPractical implications - One concrete practical implication is the availability of a standards-basedrndigitization toolkit, which can be freely used by non-members as well as members. Findings alsornsuggest a course for digital library development in collaborative ventures. In addition, this case showsrnthe benefits of the recurring, iterative process of performing usability studies during the developmentrnphase.rnOriginality/value - This paper has value for anyone looking to build collaboration inrnunder-represented regions.
