Being the major Russian event in the digital libraries field, RCDL attracts increasing attention from foreign participants and that helps to improve international collaboration. In particular, at the RCDL'2004 Prof. Edward A. Fox (Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia, USA) gave a keynote talk on "Digital Libraries of the Future: Integration through the 5S Framework" and led a tutorial on "Digital Library Foundations". These remarkable lectures were very well accepted by the participants.
For the second time RCDL was collocated with Russian Information Retrieval Evaluation Seminar (ROMIP). This annual event is similar to TREC and devoted to large scale independent evaluation of text retrieval systems with focus on russian language. ROMIP'2004 was great success and attracted leading Russian IR researchers.
