| Abstract | We are pleased to report that the $28^{th}$ Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval drew a record number of paper submissions representing the work of IR researchers in more than 50 countries. There were 368 paper submissions with 71 (19%) accepted for the conference. There were 120 posters submitted, of which, 53 (44%) were accepted. In addition, the conference included 7 tutorials, 7 workshops, and 12 demonstrations. Taken together, these contributions represent the state of the art in information retrieval research including theoretical models; novel techniques for text and multimedia retrieval in WWW and controlled collections; applications of IR techniques to summarization, question answering, and personal collections; formal evaluation methods; and empirical evaluations of human behavior in retrieval setting.The selection of quality contributions for SIGIR is dependent on a thorough and equitable two-tier reviewing process. All reviewing in SIGIR is double-blind. The program committee consists of three chairs representing geographical regions and two area coordinators for each of the thirteen areas of emphasis, plus four ad hoc area coordinators (the conference and program chairs for next year). More than 200 first-tier reviewers were assigned 3 to 7 papers by the PC chairs according to the expressed expertise of reviewers and topical categories authors gave their papers. Given the number of papers this year, most reviewers were assigned 7 papers. Each paper received at least three first tier reviews. The roles of the area coordinators were to resolve differences among reviews and produce a metareview based on the first-tier reviews. Area coordinators were selected based on their expertise in the area with geographic balance also taken into account. Most area coordinators were responsible for 15 or more papers. A two-week discussion period was allocated for this purpose and more than 800 discussion messages were logged. The area coordinators attended the PC meeting and led the discussion on the papers for which they were responsible. Posters were assessed by three reviewers each, demos by two reviewers, and workshops and tutorials were reviewed and discussed by the entire program committee. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
