The Call for Papers has now closed. The Final Programme for the 2nd DL.org Workshop can be viewed here.
Making Digital Libraries Interoperable, 9-10 September 2010, during the 14th European Conference on Digital Libraries (ECDL2010), Glasgow, Scotland, UK
Workshop Theme
The central theme of the 2nd DL.org Workshop will be “Digital Library Interoperability”. Interoperability is a multi-layered and very context-specific concept. It encompasses different levels along a multidimensional spectrum. The Workshop will address this difficult problem from several perspectives: content, user, functionality, policy, quality, and architecture. Many of the above facets include open research issues. This Workshop will highlight the several dimensions of the problem and indicate new research directions.
Paper Submission:
We are soliciting two types of contributions:
Research Papers
Authors are invited to submit original research papers addressing current approaches and new research directions for tackling the multi-faceted digital library interoperability issues.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Research papers will have a full-length oral presentation and will be published in a high-quality proceedings volume. Each submitted paper must not exceed 10 pages in total.
Project Papers
Authors are invited to submit papers focusing on DL interoperability approaches and solutions adopted and lessons learned when implementing interoperable DL systems in the context of European, international and national projects.
These papers will have a short oral presentation and will be included in the “Project Papers” section of the Workshop proceedings. Each submitted paper must not exceed 8 pages in total.
