Abstract :
The constantly increasing flood of available textual information demands the development of powerful tools to organize, search, and explore these document libraries. Within the framework of the SOMLib digital library project we have proposed the utilization of unsupervised artificial neural networks for document classification and an intuitive user interface relying on metaphor graphics for visualization of the contents of the digital library
