DELOS Summer Schools
This series of Summer Schools is intended to provide high-level courses on the domain of Digital Libraries and its underlying technologies. The schools are directed to members of the research community (in the wide sense): primarily graduate students, but also young researchers and professionals involved in R&D in Digital Library related areas.
1st DELOS International Summer School on
Digital Library Technologies (ISDL 2001)
9-13 July 2001 - Pisa (Italy)
The First DELOS International Summer School on Digital Library Technologies (ISDL 2001) was held in Pisa, Italy, from July 9-13, 2001, under the direction of Prof. Maristella Agosti, University of Padua, Italy. Being the first Summer School organised by the DELOS Network of Excellence, it was decided to have a broad program covering most of the fundamental issues underlying the multidisciplinary area of Digital Libraries. Future editions of the DELOS Summer School may focus on specific issues and technologies of interest to the area of the Digital Libraries, providing more in depth coverage of the topics selected.

Joint DELOS-MUSCLE International Summer School on
Multimedia Digital Libraries, Machine learning and
cross-modal technologies for access and retrieval
12-17 June 2006 - San Vincenzo (Italy)
The Summer School on "Multimedia Digital Libraries, Machine learning and cross-modal technologies for access and retrieval" has been jointly organized by those two Networks, and has been held in San Vincenzo, Italy (about 50 Km South of Pisa), from 12 to 17 June 2006. The aim of the school was to promote advanced experiences and implementations and, more in general, to improve knowledge in these fields. The school has been open to researchers and practitioners who were interested in audio-visual and multimedia digital libraries and in advanced solutions and technologies for their implementation. It has also contributed to establish a common vision of the future ICT technologies for digital libraries, and ultimately has represented a significant opportunity to exchange experiences, to share common problems and to start new joint activities.

Joint DELOS-NSDL International Summer School on
Digital Libraries for the Digital Librarian:
Making the Journey from Traditional to Digital Libraries
28 May - 2 June 2007 - Settignano (Italy)
DELOS and NSDL have joined forces in organizing a Summer School that intends to address some of the common concerns of cultural heritage institutions (such as libraries, archival institutions and museums) as they work together (or should work in the future) with information providers, publishers, publications suppliers to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the digital environment for the knowledge society. The digital medium is radically new for libraries, archives, museums and other information providers and they should undertake a thorough examination of roles and practices in order to address the challenges that this implies. Although there is a continuity of purpose and value of the traditional organisation within these cultural heritage and information institutions, there exists alongside the need of a fundamental re-examination of roles and practices. The main aim of the School is to provide information professionals who intend to take leadership and responsibilities in the complex world of digital libraries with the knowledge of the technologies and the organizational issues involved in the transition from a traditional organization to a Digital Library, illustrating criteria and methods that exploit the strengths of digital libraries in a socio-economic and interdisciplinary manner.
