The DILIGENT Consortium brings together a diverse group of professionals, software developers and highly qualified researchers with complementary competences in grid computing and digital libraries. Each of the DILIGENT participants brings research experiences and a number of technologies to the project that are the results of previous European Community and nationally funded initiatives. The DILIGENT partners can be divided into four categories:

• Scientific Partners (SP)
• Industrial Partners (IP)
• User Communities (UC)
• Content Providers (CP)
