Digital Presentation and Preservation of Cultural and Scientific Heritage
The issues of Digital Presentation and Preservation of Cultural and Scientific Heritage (DiPP) aim at presenting innovations, research projects and applications in the field of digitisation, documentation, archiving, representation and preservation of global and national tangible and intangible cultural and scientific heritage. The main focus is to provide open access to digitised cultural heritage and to set up sustainable policies for its continuous digital preservation and conservation. A priority area is the digital presentation and preservation of cultural and historical objects under conditions of risk. The annual DiPP forum demonstrates innovative technologies and prototypes, including digital repositories, digital archives, virtual museums and digital libraries, which result from established practices and achievements in the field. Public and specialized libraries, museums, galleries, archives, community centres, research institutions and universities are expected to gain and exchange knowledge, skills, and expertise from the event. The principal organizer of the annual DiPP conference is the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.
