We descriie a case study in the &sign of a user interface to a digital library. Our &sign stems fr0m a vision of a li%rary as a channel to the vast array of digital information and a00-ument services that are becoming available. Based on published studies of library use and on scenarios, we developed a metaphor called workcenters, which are customized for users' tasks. Due to our scenarios and to prior work in the CHI community, we chose a direct-manipulation realization of the metaphor. Our system, called DLITE, is &signed to make it easy for users to interact with many different services while focusing on a task. Users have reacted favorably to the interface design in pilot testing. We conclude by descriiing our approaches to this problem.
