| Abstract | The 2007 International Symposium on Wikis brings together wiki researchers, practitioners, and users. The goal of the symposium is to explore and extend our growing community. The symposium has a rigorously reviewed research paper track, as well as plenty of space for workshops, posters, panels, demonstrations, and open discussions. We intend WikiSym 2007 to be an exiciting venue for anyone who is involved in using, researching, or developing wikis. We recognize the online world is always evolving, and we also welcomed contributions which are about other online media consistent with the wiki philosophy of being open, organic and participatory. Given the interdisciplinary nature of wikis, we have especially invited contributions from researchers and practitioners from a wide range of fields including: business, marketing, law communications and media studies computer science, human-computer interaction history, political science, geography information and library science linguistics, discourse analysis, language studies natural sciences, medicine. We were very happy at the positive support, and we did get submissions covering all aspects that we suggested. For the research paper track, we received 39 submissions. Of these, we accepted 9 as full papers, and 11 as short papers. All submissions were reviewed by at least three members of our international program committee, and acceptance was decided by consensus. We feel that the wiki idea is continuing to gain pace as it reaches many people who see the benefits and fascination of this simple but far-reaching approach to sharing knowledge in a community. |

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.
