Abstract
Libraries are the tools we use to learn and to answer our questions. The quality of our work depends, among others, on the quality of the tools we use. Recently, the semantic web and social networking technologies are being introduced to the digital libraries domain. In this article we present the results of an evaluation of social and semantic end-user information discovery services for the digital libraries.
