    An excerpt from the Preface from the Proceedings states:

    This conference explored current (and imminent) knowledge creation, acquisition, navigation, correlation, retrieval, management and dissemination practicalities and potentialities, their implementation and impact, and the theories behind the developments. The speakers reviewed the processes, technologies and tools, such as rights tracking, interfaces and visualization, search engine design and capabilities, and automated indexing and classification. They also described the appropriate or necessary operational policies, relevant legal issues (laws, legislation and the EU Directive), and possible international and domestic policies and regulations.
