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.
