ABSTRACT
What if there were an electronic computer science library? Consider the possibilities of having your favorite publications available within finger's reach. Consider Project Envision, an ongoing effort to build a user-centered database from the computer science literature. This paper describes the project's first year progress, stressing the underlying motivation, user-centered development, and the overall design.
