of the Conference was Digital Libraries: Knowledge Creation, Preservation, 
Access, and Management. The conference received an overwhelming response 
and more than 750 delegates including 105 foreign delegates from 36 
countries attended the conference. 

The ICDL 2006 will aim at further strengthening the academic collaboration 
and strategic alliance in development of DL in the world and is expected
