(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.
Keynote speaker
We are particularly pleased to welcome our main invited speaker Giuseppe
Vitiello, (currently : Electronic Publishing, Books and Archives,
Conseil
de l'Europe [Council of Europe]). His talk is entitled 'A European
policy
for electronic publishing: a policy-making standpoint'.
Target audience
The Conference is aimed at anyone involved in the production, provision
or
use of Electronic Publishing and/or its products, or the academic study
of
these activities. This includes, but is not limited to: publishers;
providers of net services; providers of support services for
e-publishing;
information professionals; librarians; information consultants; all
academics in information and publishing studies; and others with an
interest in any aspect of e-publishing and the provision of public
information.

even
