Date: 23~27 February 2009

Venue: Building for Humanities and Social Sciences, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan

The 2009 TELDAP International Conference in conjunction with GRL 2020 and MCN Taiwan Meeting will be held at Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan from 23 to 27 February 2009. The joint event is organized by the International Collaboration Division of the Taiwan e-Learning and Digital Archives Program (TELDAP).

Following the success of 2008 Conference, what we intend to achieve in the 2009 Annual Conference is not only to demonstrate the results of TELDAP, but also include more in-depth discussions on the various applications of digital archives and on how the digital archives facilitates the paradigm shift of research methodology. The Conference covers topics such as the status of progress of the results of TELDAP, in-depth application of TELDAP content, new applications and technologies based on digitized contents, etc.

The objective of TELDAP is to promote and coordinate content digitization and preservation at leading museums, archives, universities, research institutes, and other content holders in Taiwan. The Annual Conference provides a forum to encourage and facilitate the interaction, collaboration, dialogues and best practices among the specialists in digital archives from different countries. By exchanging experiences on how to develop digital preservation technology and applications, we believe that co-locating GRL 2020 and TELDAP Annual Conference would provide the Digital Archive community with invaluable insights for future collaboration.

     Registration is now open. Details of the Program and Conference-related information are available at
