Abstract

Digital libraries provide a great deal of flexibility by allowing users to explore and annotate their collections. The majority of digital libraries and research in the field have concentrated on the needs and habits of adult users; little is known about the habits and specific needs of children using digital libraries. This paper introduces Alph, a prototype interface specifically designed with a child annotator in mind.
