Electronic Commerce and Digital Libraries

Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona / In this chapter we discuss digital libraries from an electronic commerce perspective. The
focus is on what the two have in common. The first section is an introduction which
discuses some of the impacts that digital libraries and electronic commerce have had on
our lives. The second section discusses common driving forces behind the two. The next
section discusses common challenges, with an emphasis on the digital library perspective.
The fourth section discusses several common issues, in particular, social, legal, quality,
security and economic issues that both digital libraries and electronic commerce must
address. The discussion in the fourth section primarily presents a digital library
perspective, although the issu-es are important to both digital libraries and electronic
commerce. Finally, the chapter closes with a conclusion.
