The International Conference on Asian Digital Libraries (ICADL) is one of 
the leading international conferences in digital libraries research. ICADL 
2007 will provide a forum for sharing ideas, research results and 
experiences in digital libraries, related technologies and associated 
practical and social issues. Participants from diverse backgrounds are 
encouraged. Previous conferences have included practitioners, researchers, 
educators and policy makers from a variety of disciplines such as computer 
science/information technology, library and information sciences, archival 
and museum studies, knowledge management, and many areas in the social 
sciences and humanities.

Into its tenth year, the theme of ICADL 2007 will be "Asian Digital 
libraries: Looking Back 10 Years and Forging New Frontiers".  In line with 
this theme, we are soliciting papers that examine the history and 
development of digital libraries, especially projects in the Asian region, 
as well as papers that discuss future developments and cutting-edge 
technologies in digital libraries. Submissions focusing on other digital 
library areas are also welcome and may include research, system, 
evaluation, policy and position papers. Topics include but are not limited to:

* digital library infrastructure and architecture
* information retrieval, filtering and extraction
* data/text/Web mining
