Workshop on Advanced Technologies for Digital Libraries 2009
AT4DL 2009, 8th September 2009, Trento (Italy)
Please see the ICSD conference page for more information about fees and registration.
Aim
The fast growth of digital material is challenging for research in many disciplines. The EU has funded many projects to advance research in this field and facilitate end-user access to cultural and scientific heritage. The ENRICH, Europeana, CACAO, GAMA, NEEO and TELplus projects, funded by the eContentplus programme, call 2006, have joined forces to organise a workshop as a satellite event of ICSD 2009.
The workshop aims to bring together stakeholders in order to present an overview of state-of-the-art systems in the field and identify open research problems that require further work.
