conference in Stellenbosch. The programme is open to librarians, repository managers, developers and researchers in digital libraries and related fields. Applicants submitting a proposal for the conference will be given priority consideration for funding,
and preference will be given to applicants from the African continent. Full details and an application form will shortly be available on the conference website.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
