这个项目将尝试通过使用信息技术创建一个特别大范围的动态参考工作，以全面和创新的方式组织一个学术学科的主题问题。该项目的目标是：-设计和实施一个定制的工作流程系统，通过该系统，学术哲学家可以协作撰写，维护，跟踪和总结在印刷和电子媒体上发表的新思想-制作一个全面的参考工作，不仅对学者有用，但是对普通大众也一样——开发适用于其他主题领域的哲学材料的XML标准，来自数字图书馆计划的研究基金将是支持该项目的更大基础的一部分，目标是在工作流系统开发和构建能够充分利用动态参考工作特性的用户界面工具方面取得进展。这方面的例子包括不断发展的概念图、基于用户需求的动态交叉引用等。实现这一目标的方法可以作为人文科学其他学科的范例。

This project will attempt to organize the topical matter of an academic discipline in a comprehensive and innovative way by creating a dynamic reference work of exceptionally large scope using information technologies. The goals of the project are: - to design and implement a customized work-flow system through which academic philosophers can collaboratively write, maintain, track and summarize the new ideas being published in print and electronic media- to produce a comprehensive reference work useful not only to scholars, but to the general public as well- to develop XML standards for the materials of philosophy applicable to other topical areas research funds from the Digital Libraries Initiative would be part of a larger base of support for the project and targeted toward advances in work-flow system development and building user interface tools that can fully exploit the features of a dynamic reference work. Examples of these include evolving concept maps, dynamic cross-referencing based on user needs, etc. The methods used to achieve this can serve as an example for other disciplines in the humanities and sciences.
