Abstract
Digital libraries (DL) are increasingly broader in scope and reach, spanning geographical and cultural boundaries. Yet little research is available on the influence of culture as it pertains to the design and use of digital libraries. To address these considerations, a workshop was organized at Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) 2003, the aim of which was to bring together researchers and practitioners (twelve participants altogether) from a variety of disciplines to present current projects and contribute to a collaborative research agenda. The goals of the workshop were: 1) to increase awareness about the area of cross-cultural usability in the digital library community; 2) to identify new tools, techniques and methodologies for cross-cultural study of user behavior in DLs and international user interface design; 3) to provide a forum for generating new research directions and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
