Abstract
Through a research and development of some key techniques and related technologies of digital library for ten more years, an important technical foundation for developing a practical digital library has been established. A dozen of digital libraries are summarized in three main types as the following: a DL of special collection; a service-orientated DL; a DL with commercial database. The architecture of a service-orientated DL has been developed in Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU): It consists of various E-resources and an information service platform. Generally, the E-resources for this type of DL includes three parts: a) digital special collections of their own; b) commercial online e-publications or databases (including locally mirror-sited databases); and: c) some selected information resources on the Internet. The information service platform consists of an unique information searching platform and a VRS platform. E-resources are searched through a unique interface. Using the virtual reference system patrons is given advice and guidance concerning their problems in searching resources or other problems.
