Ubiquitous Digital Libraries

ECDL2007 invites proposals for Panels. Panels should be lively, dynamic, and provoke discussion. They are NOT paper presentations or reports. If slides are included, they should be few in number and briefly covered, aimed mostly to set the stage for discussion. In no case should presentation time exceed 1/3 to 1/2 of the total time.

Optimally, panels address controversial subjects of interest to a large community of ECDL participants, and are titled with a provocative question. Ample time should be allowed for questions and discussions engaging the audience. The number of panel members should be limited to no more than 4-5 plus the panel leader.
