Digital Library Task Force

In 1995, the IEEE Computer Society established the Task Force on Digital Libraries as a first step leading to a full-fledged Technical Committee. The task force is to promote research in the theory and practice of all aspects of digital libraries. The task force sponsors activities that benefit its members and profession. Such activities include sponsoring and co-sponsoring symposia, sessions in large conferences, tutorials, and a newsletter. The task force co-sponsored the Forum on Research and Technology Advances in Digital Libraries and is co-sponsoring the International Journal of Digital Libraries, published by Springer-Verlag. Membership in the Task Force on Digital Libraries is free
