About AriadneAriadne is a Web magazine for information professionals in archives, libraries and museums in all sectors. Since its inception in January 1996 it has attempted to keep the busy practitioner abreast of current digital library initiatives as well as technological developments further afield. It concentrated originally on reporting in depth to the information community at large on progress and developments within the UK Electronic Libraries Programme (eLib), covering matters such as information service developments and information networking issues worldwide. It now additionally reports on newer JISC-funded programmes and services as well as developments in the field of Museums, Libraries and Archives within the UK and abroad. It is published by UKOLN every three months across the year beginning in January. Ariadne generally seeks to inform readers with a variety of articles in each issue, some technical, some of a more strategic nature, in the anticipation that most readers will find something of relevance to their work or interests in every issue. UKOLN is funded by MLA, the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council, the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) of the Higher Education Funding Councils, as well as by project funding from the JISC and the European Union. UKOLN also receives support from the University of Bath where it is based. The content of the current issue is also available as an RSS feed.

or by post to: Permission to reuse AriadneA regular number of requests is received each year to re-publish articles or even translate and publish. The editor is generally sympathetic towards requests from practitioners and other interested parties. The conditions applied when permission is granted normally require nothing more than ensuring authors and Ariadne are credited, and that no alterations to material are implemented without prior consultation and agreement. Naturally we are pleased to see Ariadne articles serving new audiences. Consequently we do our utmost to turn such requests around quickly. However we cannot guarantee either automatic permission or a rapid outcome. Generally the more information you can supply us the easier it is to accede to requests. All such requests should be made to ariadne-cite@ukoln.ac.uk |
