Central questions here are, among others, the possible and context adapted use or reuse of digital library materials; the relevant production, management and publishing technologies for doing this; pragmatically relevant description and indexing of digital library material; the integration of e-learning standards in the description of material of a digital library; the definition and use of elearning publishing standards; the definition of appropriate organizational and workflow models taking into account the new, “virtual” cooperation between the traditionally separated activities of librarians and teachers.
