Current publications are more and more available in electronic form. Nevertheless there is still a clear predominance of printed
material within library holdings. In order to facilitate online access to these information the Center for Digitization at
Göttingen University Library was initiated as innovative service center for digitization work and techniques, financially
supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the Ministry of Culture of the Federal State of Lower Saxony. Setting
up a Document-Management-System (DMS) as key component for the digital library architecture is one of the overall goals for
the Center. Starting with Saros Mezzanine, a traditional EDMS for companies from FileNet, we present now, as result of a collaboration
with the Satz-Rechen-Zentrum (SRZ) company in Berlin, a comfortable system named AGORA. The article gives a brief overview
over development and functionality of the new DMS for digital libraries, AGORA.
