Personalisation and Recommender Systems in Digital Libraries. Joint NSF-EU DELOS Working Group Report
In ERCIM workshop proceedings, 2003
Abstract:
Digital libraries are collections of information that have associated services delivered to
user communities using a variety of technologies. The collections of information can be
scientific, business or personal data, and can be represented as digital text, image, audio,
video, or other media. This information can be digitised paper or born digital material
and the services offered on such information can be varied, ranging from content
operations to rights management and can be offered to individuals or user communities.
Internet access has resulted in digital libraries that are increasingly used by diverse
communities for diverse purposes, and in which sharing and collaboration have become
important social elements.
