Abstract
The constantly increasing volume of information available on the Internet is changing the forms of clas sification and access to data. Given the immense collection of information stored on the Internet, digital libraries constitute a fundamental subject of research. Among the challenges of classifying, locating and accessing knowledge in digital libraries tackling with the huge amount of resources the Web provides, improving digital libraries by means of different strategies, particularly, using semantics remains a prom ising and interesting approach. In this paper, CallimachusDL is presented, a semantics based digital library which provides faceted search, enhanced access possibilities and a proof of concept implementa tion. CallimachusDL represents a novel approach to digital libraries, integrating social web and multime dia elements in a semantically annotated repository. The results of the implementation indicate that the features proposed in CallimachusDL are encouraging and extendable in the use of digital libraries.
