Digitising Journals : Conference on future strategies for
European libraries
13/14 March 2000 in Copenhagen
On 13 and 14 March 2000 directors of the European national libraries
and policy makers within the digitising area meet in Copenhagen for a
conference on ditigising journals.
Digitisation of journals is a major issue right now. International
co-operation and pooling of experiences is essential. Common goals
should be identified and the question of copyright must be addressed.
The conference aims to work out a joint policy on digitisation and
hopes to take the first steps towards the establishment of a European
JSTOR.
The conference is organised by LIBER and Denmark's Electronic
Research Library (DEF) in co-operation with the European project
DIEPER, the North American JSTOR project and NORDINFO, the Nordic
Council for Scientific Information and HEDS.
