The National Library Board of
Singapore held its inaugural World Library Summit in April 2002. Entitled
"Global Knowledge Renaissance", it fielded a broad range of speakers
from several information-related disciplines who shared ideas about new ways
forward for knowledge technology. The main themes covered were 'Digital
Civilisation and Knowledge Societies', 'People Connectivity and Cultural
Entreprenuership' and 'Knowledge Governance and Collaboration'.
This
collection of selected papers presented at the Summit has been compiled and
organised into three sections:
This publication extends to readers the lively exchange
which took place at the Summit and provides the basis for all knowledge
professionals to work towards a true Global Knowledge Renaissance.
