Digital Libraries
The field of Digital Libraries (DLs) generally involves the study of digital collections of information and corresponding network-based services used to retrieve data from the collections. DLs are in effect information systems that are used to persistently store digital objects, manage the digital objects and, facilitate access to the digital objects.
Our focus in the field of DLs, as a research group, mostly involves experimenting with techniques that can potentially facilitate efficient and effective access to digital objects stored in DLs.
