Hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested in digital library (DL) research. Much of this research has investigated how DLs can aid education, but there has been no parallel investment in supporting teaching and learning about DL development and management. The Digital Libraries Curriculum Development project (http://curric.dlib.vt.edu/wiki/) is an effort to overcome this shortcoming in DL education.
