Towards a general theory of the Digital Library
International Symposium on Research, Development and Practice in Digital Libraries / . Abstract: The digital library is a curious entity. It has been long predicted, but the innovations which made it a reality only recently were not generally foreseen. Although it is a reality, it is a diffuse concept which is being manifested in many different forms. Although professionals and users alike realise that it is critical for the future, there is much uncertainty about what it means for culture, learning, democracy, commerce, jobs, and society in general.
