TPDL 2024

TPDL is an international forum focused on digital libraries and their associated technical, practical, and social issues. The conference encompasses the many meanings of the term 'digital libraries,' embracing the whole spectrum of the LAM (Library, Archive, and Museum) community; operational information systems with digital content; new means of selecting, collecting, organising and distributing digital content; and theoretical models of information media, including document genres and electronic publishing.

In 2024, TPDL is expanding its scope to prominently include Document Analysis/Recognition and Information Retrieval. This acknowledges the vital role of those research areas in the creation (by means of digitisation and information extraction from heterogeneous sources), access, discovery and dissemination of digital content. This includes exploring innovative approaches to document image analysis and recognition, search algorithms, data retrieval, user engagement, and personalised content delivery within digital libraries, making these two areas central themes for this year’s conference.

The conference will start with a workshop organised by the IMPACT Centre of Competence in Digitisation, with sessions on the common European data space for cultural heritage, and the Workflow to publish Collections as Data.
