The Gazetteer database currently contains 4500 features and is needed to : (1) facilitate the specification of footprint in the Qualified Dublin Core metadata records that are used to describe digital assets ; and (2) support the search for and retrieval of select objects based on location, time, format, and/or keyword. The role of the digital gazetteer and a new browser which will offer the library patron a web-based query form with an interactive map is explained. The interface can be used to draw a query on a map, and it provides a series of pull menus that can be used to specify time periods, formats, collections, and keywords of interest. A new method for specifying neighborhood footprints in the digital gazetteer is described in some detail, and opportunities are highlighted for generalizing the method to help with search and retrieval using the map browser.
