In 2010, one year after the launch of the Europeana.eu, the first Digital Library conference was dedicated to this comprehensive initiative supporting the digitisation of European cultural heritage. Since then, the 'Digital Library' conference has continuously provided a platform for the presentation of national and regional initiatives and projects for making digital cultural heritage accessible. The fact that a joint podium was created here for the sharing of experiences from all cultural and research sectors (museums, libraries, archives, educational institutions, etc.) has become a hallmark of the event.

    To mark the event's 10th anniversary, it now looks back and into the future. Which topics continue to be relevant, which issues have been resolved, what new challenges does the sector face now and in the near future? Can the developments of recent years serve as a guide for future concepts and approaches?

    The main topics of the conference, 'Back (and) to the future' are:

    • Technology: Established and cutting edge (e.g. AI, machine learning)
    • Networks: Cooperation, partnerships, working together 
    • Sustainability: How do we preserve knowledge? What happens to knowledge/know-how that is not digitally available? Can knowledge be 'secured' - is it verifiable? What new ways of knowledge transfer for GLAM institutions are available? How can we choose which knowledge to preserve and process?
