Title
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to host two international conferences in June, 2008
Abstract
The city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, will play host to two international conferences in June 2008. This former industrial Mecca will turn truly high-tech when JCDL 2008 and Hypertext 2008 take place! The conferences are being hosted by the School of Information Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh. JCDL (the Joint Digital Libraries Conference) will take place June 16--20, 2008. It is immediately followed by Hypertext 2008 on June 19--21, 2008. Together, the conferences will welcome more than 450 scholars, industry professionals, students, and researchers to Pittsburgh. It is not the first time that these two conferences have been presented together. Following our conference themes of "linking people and places" and "Bridging Culture, Bridging Technology," it is of interest to note that the ACM Hypertext and Digital Libraries conferences were co-located in Pittsburgh in 1998. This was extremely appropriate as the Hypertext Conference examines one of the core technologies that support the development and management of digital libraries. Soon after 1998, the Digital Libraries Conference evolved into the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL), a stand-alone event. It is only fitting that Hypertext is again linked to JCDL in Pittsburgh ten years later.
