Data
management plans, data publication, and calls for open data
are raising the visibility of digital data as a medium to be
addressed by a wide community of researchers, libraries,
museums and data centers. As a way to encourage a
conversation on these issues, the California Digital Library
has created a new site for exploring the landscape of digital
data: Data Pub (http://datapub.cdlib.org).
Similar to public houses throughout history, we hope that this
site and blog will serve as a centerpiece for discussing
digital data topics – ye olde data public house. Additional

wording changes: simpler is better
Thanks
to suggestions from UC librarians, CDL has simplified key
messages in the UC-eLinks window. But these changes go beyond
wordsmithing — they reflect changes in the nature of online
discovery. And they spotlight the important role librarians
play in helping users dig deeper to get online content. News
