Dear members of the IFIP family,
we are glad to inform you that a first (experimental) version of IFIP Digital Library (DL) is available from (new) IFIP website. It is the mission of IFIP DL to support a free and non-restrictive flow of communication from IFIP to its members and fellows, hence IFIP DL shall finally contain all IFIP Publications for FREE access and free download (the database will suitably be updated). For those publications under the Springer contract, a reference to SpringerLink will be included from where you can then freely access the related conference proceedings.
As Publication Committee will analyse the operation and further requirements for IFIP DL, as well as business models how to cover the costs, it would be very helpful if you report your impressions, findings and suggestions to Publication Committee Chair, Prof. Joe Turner (turner@cs.clemson.edu). Based on a related suggestion of Publications Committee, a decision on IFIP DL will be taken at GA-2006 in Santiago de Chile. Concerning malfunctions, please report them to Eduard Dundler in IFIP secretariat, and we will try to correct them ASAP.
You will find "experimental (IFIP) Digital Library" on the IFIP website (top, right side): http://www.ifip.org.
Best regards: Klaus Brunnstein (June 29, 2006)
