Participation in DELOS Digital Libraries Workshop in San Cassiano, Italy

本建议备忘录为资助首席调查员参加2001年6月在意大利圣卡西亚诺举行的Delos数字图书馆讲习班提供了支持和理由。这次会议题为“数字图书馆：欧洲研究计划的未来研究方向”，预计将是为下一阶段欧洲数字图书馆研究和应用活动制定核心智力议程和业务框架的一次开创性事件。美国和欧盟的议程自然被共同的目标联系在一起，即在信息生命周期的网络、系统、内容、使用和其他阶段实现互操作性。一个长期的总体目标是为全球信息网络基础设施发展共享资源。这次会议由Delos数字图书馆英才网络与欧洲委员会第五届FP IST计划的文化遗产应用股合作举办。

This recommendation memo provides support and justification for funding the Principal Investigator to participate in a DELOS Digital Libraries Workshop to be held in San Cassiano, Italy in June, 2001. This meeting, entitled "Digital Libraries: Future Research Directions for a European Research Programme," is expected to be a seminal event for producing the core intellectual agenda and operational framework for the next phase of European activities in digital libraries research and applications. The US and EU agendas are naturally linked by common goals to achieve interoperability at the networking, systems, content, usage and other stages in the information lifecycle. A long-term overall goal is the development of shared resources for a global information cyber-infrastructure. The meeting is being organized by the DELOS Network of Excellence on Digital Libraries, in cooperation with the Cultural Heritage Applications Unit of the 5th FP IST Programme of the European Commission.
