The NSF recently hosted a workshop on Post Digital Library Futures or what some participants called "Ubiquitous Knowledge Environments" (Chatham, Massachusetts, June 15-17, 2003). The proceedings are not yet online, but each participant was asked to write a background paper, and the collection of background papers is now online. (Thanks to Clifford Lynch.)

on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
