DIRL Version 4.4 Released
As per May 9, 2022, version 4.4 of the Disaster Information
Reference Library
(DIRL)
<http://faculty.washington.edu/jscholl/dirl/index.php>
has been released as a minor update. Another minor update will
follow during this summer. The library now contains 4,099
references of predominantly English-language, peer-reviewed work
in the study domains of disaster information and information
technologies and their uses in the context of disasters. This
represents an increase over the previous version of 166
references, or 4.2%. The DIRL release
history
<http://faculty.washington.edu/jscholl/dirl/history.php>
reveals that from the inaugural DIRL version 1.0 to this version
(DIRL v. 4.4), the peer-reviewed academic literature has almost
doubled in the course of less than four years. This is a
remarkable increase of the body of academic knowledge in the
particular area of disaster information management and disaster
information technology within a relatively short period of time.
The DIRL is intended to become an indispensable tool for Disaster
Information and Technology-interested scholars. In particular,
reviewers of paper submissions may want to rely on this reference
library.
