S.A. Mathieson, Libraries embrace digital age, The Guardian, January 28, 2004. Excerpt: "Beyond capturing material, the next challenge will be to categorise it. The UK is making a start through the Resource Discovery Network, a group involving 70 research and educational organisations that selects and categorises high-quality websites of academic interest....The internet is not making librarians obsolete - instead, creating guides to the internet, the ultimate unsorted library, is their biggest job to date."

Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
