Abstract: Every day, a huge amount of newly created information is electronically published in digital libraries. Complementary to the usual vision, we envisage a digital library not only as an information source where users may submit queries to satisfy their daily information need, but also as a collaborative working and meeting space of people sharing common interests.

Keywords: digital library; collaboration; personalisation; user recommendation; digital archives; information sharing; knowledge sharing; collaborative working; web-based communities.
