Abstract
Over the past decade the development of digital library activities within Asia Pacific has been steadily increasing. Through a meta-analysis of the publications and content within International Conference on Asian Digital Libraries (ICADL) and other major regional digital library conferences over the past few years, we see an increase in the level of activity in Asian digital li brary research. This reflects high continuous interest among digital library re searchers and practitioners internationally. Digital library research in the Asia Pacific is uniquely positioned to help develop digital libraries of significant cul tural heritage and indigenous knowledge and advance cross-cultural and cross-lingual digital library research.
