Digital Library Federation:

The Digital Library Federation (DLF) is a consortium of libraries and related agencies that are pioneering in the use of electronic-information technologies to extend their collections and services. Through its members, the DLF provides leadership for libraries broadly by -

  • identifying standards and "best practices" for digital collections and network access
  • coordinating leading-edge research-and-development in libraries' use of electronic-information technology
  • helping start projects and services that libraries need but cannot develop individually.

The DLF operates under the administration umbrella of the Council of Library and Information Resources (CLIR).
