The well-established aim of IRCDL is to bring together Italian researchers interested in the di?erent methods and techniques that allow the building and operation of Digital Libraries. A national Program Committee was set up c- posed of 15 members, with representatives of the most active Italian research groups on Digital Libraries. Seventeen of the papers presented at the conference were accepted for - clusion in this volume. Selected authors submitted expanded versions of their workshoppapers. Those papers were reviewed again and the results of the sel- tion arethe papers appearingin these proceedings. The coveredtopics testifying to the bright interests of the community are: System Interoperability and Data Integration including emerging interop- ability issues and technologies promoting interoperability Infrastructures, Metadata Creation and Content Management for Digital Libraries, such as methods and techniques for text summarization and key phraseextraction, ontology-basedannotation, event-centricprovenancem- els, semantic relatedness Information Access and Search for Digital Library Systems from mat- matical symbol indexing to term-based text retrieval and disambiguation techniques, from audio-based information retrieval to video content-based identi?cation, classi?cation and retrieval User Interfaces for Digital Libraries including interactive visual represen- tions, collaborativeuser interfaces, multimodal user interface for multimedia Digital Libraries, personalization models The volume also contains the reports on the two keynote addresses and a communication on a relevant national project."
