Second Workshop on Very Large Digital Libraries

摘要

The main conclusion drawn from all workshop deliberations was that Very Large Digital Libraries research seem to focus on scalability challenges that Digital Library systems manifest in terms of content, user, policy, and functionality management. Furthermore, it is not only size that is a key issue but also levels of sustainability and interoperability. The need for research in these areas is great, and any progress in these directions will be further investigated in the next edition of VLDL.
