Colleagues/

I have discovered that Bob Martens of Vienna University Of Technology
has created a database that provides
access to all of the conference papers presented at the ELPUB
[Electronic Publishing] conferences dating from 1997, the year of the
first ELPUB Conference.

ELPUB Digital Library is available at  [
http://elpub.scix.net/cgi-bin/works/Home ]

There are a variety of search and browse options that provide FREE
access to the Full Text of included papers!
"The use is free of charge. Access to advanced features (article
upload, creation of collections, discussion forums, ratings, reviews,
etc.) is subject to **user registration** and login. 

[ http://elpub.scix.net/cgi-bin/users/Add ]

IMHO, many of the papers presented at previous ELPUB conferences have
consistently reported cutting/bleeding edge developments in all areas of
Electronic Publishing and are well worth the read. As of today, nearly
300 papers are available!

BTW: The 2005 ELPUB  will be held June 8-10, 2005 and will be hosted by
the Research Group on Document Architectures (DocArch) of the Katholieke
Universiteit Leuven (Catholic University of Leuven). The conference will
take place at the Arenberg Castle, a beautiful 16th-Century castle
situated in an impressively green scenery in Heverlee near the city of
Leuven.

The list of suggested topics for the 2005 conference is quite wide
ranging
