Functional Specifications, Digital Library Implementation

Text Functionality and Imaging working groups met in 2002 to discuss and document the required level of functionality for searching, display of results sets, and the delivery of image and text content through the Repository. These decisions were informed by the current Etext search and style implementations, review of the implementation of Phase 1, and any limitations of the search engine(s).

The specifications here are drawn from those reports, and documented as outlines on a screen-by-screen basis, from the search screens(s) through the viewing of individual texts or images. The Image Tool Specifications were developed by the Imaging group as a response to needs specified during the review of Phase 1. The GDMS Display Label and Value Rules were specified by the Metadata Steering Group.
