DLS and NSDL recently came together with the National Center for Atmospheric Research to develop a technical sustainability strategy for the Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE), one of the first big digital library projects in the U.S. DLESE was a grassroots, community-led organization with a completed collection of 13,500 digital educational resources organized into 41 thematic collections—NSDL’s "geoscience node." The DLESE digital artifact is now being preserved and made accessible using NCore technologies.
