The theme for this year's Virtual Symposium is "Users of Arts & Humanities
Digital Collections." Digital libraries and archives enable Internet users
to access entire worlds of information at their fingertips. Who are these
users? What meaning do they take away from digital collections? What do
they do with digital collection content? What are the different
investigative tools that information scholars can use to answer these
questions?


Five presentations will answer these questions from different perspectives.
A diverse range of librarians and information scholars will present their
research, methodology, and experiences measuring and facilitating access to
arts and humanities digital collections.
