Abstract

The article addresses practicing librarians and people involved in the creation of digital libraries and institutional or subject repositories by making use of one or more of the many softwares freely available for the purpose. This is an attempt to draw up a checklist of factors to be considered while planning for these projects. The emphasis here is on non-technical, project related issues. An attempt is made to explicitly state and highlight issues that are often overlooked.
