Conference Announcement ICCC/IFIP 5th Conference on Electronic Publishing - ELPUB2001 '2001 in the Digital Publishing Odyssey' 5-7 July 2001, University of Kent at Canterbury, UK. http://library.ukc.ac.uk/iccc/2001/ (Advance Programme and Registration details)The ICCC (International Council for Computer Communications) in conjunction with IFIP (International Federation for Information Processing) is pleased to announce the Fifth ICCC/IFIP Conference on Electronic Publishing to be held at the University of Kent at Canterbury in the UK on 5-7 July 2001. The title of this year's conference is '2001 in the Digital Publishing Odyssey'. There will be two parallel tracks: one on socio-economic issues; and the other on technical issues. There will also be plenary sessions for papers and discussions that cover the whole of electronic publishing.
A major underlying theme of the ICCC/IFIP Electronic Publishing conference series is the promotion of an 'exchange of experience' between the participants - especially between academics researching in the area, and publishers and others with practical experience. All papers are refereed to ensure high quality.
