About

This workshop is intended as a forum for scholars, practitioners and students in Southeast and East Asia to share information, knowledge and technology to curate, preserve and use academic assets in the region. Southeast and East Asian countries have large diversity in many aspects – language, culture, higher education systems, industrialization levels and so forth. We are planning this workshop to share local needs and seeds for digital archiving and preservation of scholarly assets, as well as to discuss ideas to develop a network promoting collaboration in the region.

The main aims of the workshop are to:

  1. understand and share the current circumstances about academic digital assets in the leading ASEAN academic memory institutions
  2. provide opportunities for the participants to exchange and share thoughts, views and ideas about how we should deal with resource sharing and digital asset preservation, what kind of technology will be available, and who should be contributors to this issue
  3. discuss practical approaches to build a network for collaboration rather than presentation of papers.

The last two workshops (in Kyoto and Bangkok) were mainly for presentations by participatinginstitutes–their research and development projects. The 3rd workshop, in addition to the presentations about research and practical projects, will include tutorials to give a meeting a more practical approach.
