           SIGMOD/VLDB DIGITAL LIBRARY DONATION PROGRAM

               http://pike.ewha.ac.kr/sigmod-dvd

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

ACM SIGMOD and the VLDB Foundation have established a joint program
to donate database literature to universities in developing countries,
with the goal of assisting in the expansion of the database community
in those countries. Currently available literature includes
SIGMOD's Silver Edition and the SIGMOD 2003 DiSC, both on DVDs.
The Silver Edition is a comprehensive collection of 30 years of
database research literature and related materials; the complete
table of contents for the Silver Edition can be found at
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/anthology.html.
The 2003 DiSC contains the proceedings of many database research
conferences that took place in 2002, plus database research
journal issues from that year and other related materials; see
http://sigmod.discgenesis.net/ for the complete table of contents.

A request for a donation should be made by visiting our website
(http://pike.ewha.ac.kr/sigmod-dvd) and filling out an application
form. An explicit designation that the applicant agrees to the
rules is required. The rules are as follows.

(1) The donated material is for the use by all patrons of the
    recipient library.
(2) The library will make the donated material available for
    reference/limited circulation to the patrons.
(3) The library will take all conventionally accepted steps to
    abide by the copyright restrictions on the material.

Note that the donations will be made according to the following criteria.

(1) Donations will be made to libraries in universities in developing
    and undeveloped countries according to their UN classification.
(2) Donations to universities in developed countries will be made
    only in the context of demonstrated need, at a lower priority.
(3) Only one packet per University library will be donated.
(4) Graduate degree awarding departments and universities will get
    priority over non-graduate degree awarding departments and
    universities. 

*** Requests will be processed in the order in which they arrive.
*** To apply for the 2-DVD Silver Anthology set and the SIGMOD 2003 DiSC,
    please visit http://pike.ewha.ac.kr/sigmod-dvd and
    fill out an application form.
