Abstract
The Library of the University of Library and Information Science launched its digital library service (ULIS-DL) in February 1999. The major functions of ULIS-DL are to build and provide a collection of metadata of network resources for libraries and library and information science. This paper describes building a browsing system of metadata. The system provides a list of words included in the metadata. Users choose one or two words from the list, and get a subset of the metadata which include the words. It also provides a list of the creator element of the metadata and a list of Japanese noun phrase which includes chosen word. Users easily get metadata for accessing network resources with this system. The system is available on the Internet.
