Online personal library

摘要

The disclosure is directed toward a secure method and system for creating a library on a server computer, and releasing such information to authorized requesters. Several types of information are stored for release to different entities with appropriate authorization. Any modifications or updates are automatically notified to any authorized requesters. The requester optionally provides information about to whom and where to notify changes or updates. Sending a message to an electronic mail box may accomplish such change or update notification. A frequent unauthorized requester of information is tagged as “junk” requester, to whom no further information will be released. Items that are restricted as to their use can be shared by users via a license-pooling method disclosed herein.
