============================================================ CALL FOR PAPERS The 5th International Conference on Asian Digital Libraries (ICADL'02) 11-14 December 2002, Singapore

Theme: Digital Libraries: People, Knowledge and Technology human@digital-libraries.info

Web site: http://www.cais.ntu.edu.sg:8000/icadl2002/

Held in conjunction with the 3rd Intl Conf on Web Information Systems Engineering (WISE 2002) ============================================================

SCOPE When Vannevar Bush envisioned his hypertext "memex" in 1945, he dreamed of a personal microfiche-based system that would help him tackle the problem of information overload at that time. In recent years, the information on the Web, the overwhelming example of a shared world-wide collection of information, has been converted into many digital libraries by individuals or groups that select, organise, and catalogue large numbers of documents. We are in the process of creating a global infrastructure that will interconnect many computer networks and various forms of information technologies around the world, digital libraries being one of them.

ICADL'02 is the fifth in a series of annual Asian Digital Libraries conferences, and focuses on the use, adoption and adaptation of digital libraries, which include work surrounding digital libraries and related technologies, the management of knowledge in digital libraries, and the associated usability and social issues.

Participations from diverse backgrounds are encouraged. Previous conferences have included practitioners, researchers, educators and policy makers from a variety of disciplines such as computer science, library and information sciences, archival and museum studies, knowledge management, and many areas in the social sciences and humanities.

Submissions on all areas are welcome and may include research, system, evaluation, policy and position papers. Topics include but are not limited to:

• social, institutional, and policy issues
• pedagogical issues
• document genres and electronic publishing
