Description: DLIST is the Digital Library for Information Science and Technology, an Open Access Archive (OAA), a cross-institutional repository of full-text electronic resources in the domains of Library and Information Science (LIS) and Information Technology (IT). DLIST is based on free software. At its core is the Eprints 2.2 package developed at the University of Southampton, UK. Eprints requires the Linux operating system; the Apache web server with mod_perl, the Perl programming language with a handful of extra modules, and the MySQL database system. Another open source software, Webalizer is used to analyze and prepare DLIST usage reports. Eprints software is generally used to build institutional or discipline repositories of scholarship, the outputs of research such as journal articles, technical reports, conference proceedings, theses, dissertations, and books. Whole journals, books, and conference proceedings or their components such as individual chapters, and articles can be deposited into a web-accessible digital storage system and described using a database form
