4 Message 1.If you are serious about Free Culture & DLs, being an active member of NDLTD is a “no brainer”, with clear benefits & real savings. 2.5S is a clear and precise framework that allows us to describe & discuss DLs. 3.5S description of NDLTD helps facilitate understanding of how beneficial and easy it is to further develop a free culture around ETDs.

8 Informal 5S & DL Definitions DLs are complex systems that help satisfy info needs of users (societies) provide info services (scenarios) organize info in usable ways (structures) present info in usable ways (spaces) communicate info with users (streams)

9 Hypotheses A formal theory for DLs can be built based on 5S. The formalization can serve as a basis for modeling and building high- quality DLs.
