To support greater and more effective use of the Digital Library for Earth System Education, a collaborative project involving Colorado State University, Carleton College, Montana State University, and Natrona County School District, will create the DLESE Community Services Center (DCSC). The primary goals of the DCSC are to: (1) increase the current user and contributor base to inlude greater numbers of K-12, informal, and college educators and students, (2) diversify the DLESE user and contributor base to include rich and robust representation of ethnic, cultural, and differently-abled groups, and (3) improve the ability of users and contributors to easily find, adapt, and use high quality digital resources in their classrooms, laboratories, and communities. To achieve these goals the PIs will develop: (a) a series of exemplars to document the needs and use patterns of diverse groups of potential users, (b) professional development and outreach services to support use of DLESE, informed by the exemplars as the basis of both targeted and broad based outreach and professional development activities, and (c) on-line community services, including a pilot program for providing users and contributors with help desk and related web-mediated services. All programmatic efforts will be supported by formative evaluation methods, and research results will contribute to a greater understanding of the impacts of digital libraries in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. The DCSC will work closely with the DLESE Evaluation, Data, and Collection Centers, the DLESE Program Center, as well as diverse audience groups to insure that DLESE services are of the highest quality, meet the needs of current and future DLESE users, and are sustainable.

为了支持更广泛、更有效地利用地球系统教育数字图书馆，科罗拉多州立大学、卡尔顿学院、蒙大拿州立大学和纳特罗纳县学区参与的一个合作项目将创建 DLESE 社区服务中心 (DCSC)。 DCSC 的主要目标是：(1) 增加当前的用户和贡献者基础，以包含更多的 K-12、非正式和大学教育工作者和学生，(2) 使 DLESE 用户和贡献者基础多样化，以包括富有和富有的人。种族、文化和不同能力群体的强大代表性；(3) 提高用户和贡献者在教室、实验室和社区轻松查找、改编和使用高质量数字资源的能力。 为了实现这些目标，PI 将开发：(a) 一系列范例，用于记录不同潜在用户群体的需求和使用模式，(b) 专业发展和外展服务，以支持 DLESE 的使用，以范例为基础(c) 在线社区服务，包括向用户和贡献者提供服务台和相关网络服务的试点方案。 所有计划工作都将得到形成性评估方法的支持，研究成果将有助于更好地了解数字图书馆对科学、技术、工程和数学教育的影响。 DCSC 将与 DLESE 评估、数据和收集中心、DLESE 计划中心以及不同的受众群体密切合作，以确保 DLESE 服务具有最高质量，满足当前和未来 DLESE 用户的需求，并可持续的。
