In creating this site, I endevored to bring together and coherently organize a number of diverse running links. In doing this, I have tried to use the principles of traditional librarianship, especially in the areas of collection development and cataloging. Bringing the traditional skills and standards of librarianship to the deluge of information available on the Internet is perhaps the most important contribution digital libraries can make to ensuring free and open access to quality information for all users of this fast growing medium. I hope the DISTANCE RUNNING DIGITAL LIBRARY suceeds, in some small way, in doing this.
