ICCC/IFIP 5th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING
ELPUB2001 - "2001: an Electronic Publishing Odyssey"
University of Kent at Canterbury, UK - July 5 -7th, 2001
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/pm/elpub2001
SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
In the world of electronic publishing, formerly separate disciplines are merging and overlapping. Information exchange on a technical as well as on a cultural level will be essential for planning the future odyssey for electronic publishing. This information exchange between publishers, researchers, academics and professional information specialists has been at the core of the ICCC/IFIP series of ELPUB conferences from the beginning. This is a strong argument for participating in ELPUB 2001 in Canterbury!
ELPUB2001 is the 5th in a series of annual international conferences on Electronic Publishing. The objective of ELPUB2001 is to bring together researchers, managers, developers, and users working on the issues related to electronic publishing for public, scientific and commercial applications.
The conference will continue the tradition of the previous conferences which took place in Great Britain in 1997, Hungary in 1998, Sweden in 1999 and Russia in 2000.
The focus is on electronic publishing for academic and commercial purposes and for the general public. We welcome speakers on non-technical and technical developments.
