| Abstract | For as long as creative materials have been produced, the owners of those materials have sought to protect their rights over them. Indeed, approximately 500 years ago, Miguel de Cervantes had to deal with impostors seeking to publish sequels to the first part of his wildly popular Don Quixote. In the present day, the same problems exist, further exacerbated by the ongoing "digital revolution". The field of digital rights management (DRM) has formed around those seeking to deal with the modern instantiation of these problems. This volume, the eighth in a series associated with the ACM DRM Workshops, contains research contributions by those at the forefront of the field. The 8th ACM Workshop on Digital Rights Management -- ACM-DRM'08, held in conjunction with the 15th ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS), consisted of the talks and discussions associated with each of the papers contained in this volume, two invited talks, and a panel discussion involving participants with widely different views on the future direction of DRM. One of the invited talks was given by Internet pioneer Robert Kahn, and considered naming infrastructures associated with past and emerging DRM systems, while the other was given by cryptographer Yacov Yacobi, and considered content identification as well as the problem of counterfeiting software and content. During the panel discussion, recognized experts in the field considered the past development of DRM, with its many false starts, and the likely direction considered of future DRM usages. The panel included representatives from industry involved with the deployment of commercial DRM systems, as well as representatives from academia that have wrestled with the difficult policy and consumer rights issues connected with the field. |

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.
