ABSTRACT
The multidimensional nature of digital libraries evaluation domain and the amount of scientific production published on the field hinders and disorientates the interested researchers who contemplate to focus on the specific domain. These communities need guidance in order to exploit the considerable amount of data and the diversity of methods effectively as well as to identify new research goals and develop their plans for future works. This poster investigates the core topics of the digital library evaluation field and their impact by applying topic modeling and network analysis on a corpus of the JCDL, ECDL/TDPL and ICADL conferences proceedings in the period 2001-2013.
