WORKSHOP GOAL
===============
This workshop program aims to provide a forum for delegates of APEC
member 
economies and participants interested in the area of digital libraries
to share 
their experience in the digital library development and explore ways on 
cooperation and collaboration of digital libraries.  The four-day 
interdisciplinary workshop will include a very exciting agenda
consisting of 
invited speeches, technical presentations, and panel discussion
sessions.  In 
the first two days, it will offer a series of invited speeches by 
internationally recognized experts including topics on Digital
Preservation, 
Resource Management, Digital Content Presentation, Digital Museums and
Digital 
Libraries Collaboration. In the last two days we will have a joint
conference 
meeting with ICDAT 2004, a two-day meeting with an emphasis on advanced 
technical topics including 4 invited speeches, 18 solicited technical 
presentations, and a panel discussion to discuss future international 
collaboration possibilities and establishment of a digital content
exchange and 
sharing mechanism. We believe the participants will find this workshop
exciting 
and insightful and in the meantime we are looking forward more
participants to 
attending the upcoming meeting and exploring Taipei, a city full of
surprises 
and energy.
