European Conference on Digital World


The European Conference on Research and Advanced Technology on Digital Libraries (ECDL) started in 1997 in conjunction with the activities of the first DELOS Working Group. The Working Group, partially funded by the European Union, laid the foundations for the establishment of a European Research Community on Digital Libraries. ECDL has become a notable European forum focusing on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and social issues, meeting the needs of a large and diverse constituency, which includes practitioners, researchers, educators, policy makers and users.

Over the years, Private and Government aided educational institutes have come up with professional courses for the students. There are no systematic or regular sources neither in print nor in the electronic media where all information relating to admission in various career courses such as Eng, Med, Law, IT, Arts etc are available. Student and the parents are all the time worried for timely access of such news. In this bewildering maize the importance of consolidated source of information has been greatly felt. A range of web links are available to solve this problem, but very few can be considered as worthwhile.
