Living Library
Created by the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), the dropping knowledge Living Library will be a groundbreaking, easy-to-use forum of ideas, inspiration and information, open to the entire world. Supporting multiple thematic threads and viewpoints, this web-based platform will support an interactive dialogue among dropping knowledge users, one that is continually progressing from questions to discussions to solutions for the future.
Incorporating both features familiar to internet users and entirely new functions, the Living Library will preserve and structure its content according to a conceptual topography - or 'ontology' - of 25,000 themes and issues, collected over several decades by the Union of International Associations. Offering user-friendly search and 3-D graphic navigation facilities, as well as a built-in interface for locating content by asking questions in natural language, the Living Library will evolve in accordance with user-participation, prioritizing its accumulating content according to thematic relevance, level of traffic generated and a user-driven content-rating system.
Linking to a wealth of information and knowledge-resources across the web, the Living Library will serve as a powerful and ever-expanding portal of digital-age wisdom.
