These Web services help Web publishers to describe and publish their content for data integration purposes with other content providers on the Web. Other services also help users find this content.

However, a library has been described as “thought in cold storage,” and unfortunately many digital libraries can be cold, impersonal, isolated, and inaccessible places. In this Review, we discuss the current chilly state of digital libraries for the computational biologist, including PubMed, IEEE Xplore, the ACM digital library, ISI Web of Knowledge, Scopus, Citeseer, arXiv, DBLP, and Google Scholar. We illustrate the current process of using these libraries with a typical workflow, and highlight problems with managing data and metadata using URIs. We then examine a range of new applications such as Zotero, Mendeley, Mekentosj Papers, MyNCBI, CiteULike, Connotea, and HubMed that exploit the Web to make these digital libraries more personal, sociable, integrated, and accessible places. We conclude with how these applications may begin to help achieve a digital defrost, and discuss some of the issues that will help or hinder this in terms of making libraries on the Web warmer places in the future, becoming resources that are considerably more useful to both humans and machines.

It is useful for in-line program documentation (such as Python docstrings), for quickly creating simple web pages, and for standalone documents. reStructuredText is designed for extensibility for specific application domains. The reStructuredText parser is a component of Docutils. reStructuredText is a revision and reinterpretation of the StructuredText and Setext lightweight markup systems.

The call to "eat your own dog-food" is often heard in the Semantic Web research area. The motto encourages us to use the languages and tools that we are developing to support our own work and demonstrate convincing arguments for the introduction of explicit semantics. The International Semantic Web and European Semantic Web Conference series have followed this maxim and published metadata describing the events. This metadata covers information about papers, schedules, attendees etc. Tools can then consume this information and provide services, such as intelligent scheduling or search, to conference attendees.

Simboli Science Librarian Library and Technology Services Lehigh University Bethlehem, Pennsylvania brs4@lehigh.edu Copyright 2008, Brian D. Simboli. Used with permission. In July 2008 Thomson Reuters added a new "citation mapping" tool to its Web of Science product. This tool, which is touted on the Web of Science (hereafter, WOS) search interface as a beta version, enables users to visualize the relationship between citing and cited references. The citation mapping tool is a welcome addition to WOS. Below I discuss how the tool works, offer some comments and suggestions about it, and conclude with some notes about future directions. Persons interested in bibliographic visualization software may also find of interest HistCite, developed by Eugene Garfield, pioneer of cited/citing searching and analysis. For an overview of HistCite, see Herther (2007). This review will not compare the new citation mapping tool in WOS to the features of HistCite, but will reference the HistCite web page in a few places.

The Internet embodies an enormous information space that continues to expand exponentially in page count but not proportionally in new knowledge. Redundancy of the same facts and opinions within a myriad of web-pages has artificially inflated the size of the Internet. To get a million search results on a query without the ability to separate redundancy of the same information from the incremental knowledge expansions on that query concept is highly inefficient. Within the Concept Web, information is converted to streamlined knowledge where redundancy and newness of idea expansion are properly represented. In the Concept Web, knowledge representation and expansion is accomplished with the aid of two revolutionary technologies: Knowlet and a new professional Wiki.
