European Conference on
Research and Advanced Technology for Digital Libraries
Welcome to the Homepage of the ECDL Conference Series
The ECDL Conference Series started in 1997 in conjunction with the activities of the first DELOS Working Group. The Working Group, partially funded by the European Union, laid the foundations for the establishment of an European Research Community on Digital Libraries. ECDL has become the major European forum focusing on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and social issues, meeting the needs of a large and diverse constituency, which includes practitioners, researchers, educators, policy makers and users.
The Proceedings of all the ECDL conferences have been published by Springer Verlag (electronic edition available via Springerlink) in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. In the Table below you can find a link to all the conferences and their Proceedings.
