OCLC Systems & Services: International Digital Library Perspectives will be publishing a special issue on digitization projects that are international and collaborative. The editor is looking for innovative digitization projects that feature multiple formats (books, images, maps, 3D visualization, music, art, etc.), and that have multiple partners and collaborators from different countries and nationalities. Projects that are based on international grants are especially encouraged. Articles can be of any length, and figures and screen shots are encouraged.

Horowhenua Library Trust and Katipo Communications in New Zealand are pleased to annouce the release of Kete Version 1.0, a collection-based content management system released under the GPL and developed in Ruby on Rails. Full documentation, contacts and links to the code repository can be found at the project site http://kete.net.nz.
