The Conference on Integrated Development of Digital Publishing and Digital Libraries (CDPDL), which was held in Changchun, China from August 7 to 12, 2019, was hosted by several university libraries—including Tsinghua University Library—and supported by China’s leading academic information service enterprise, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). As the largest international conference in the field of library science in China, CDPDL held its 10th meeting in Changchun. Even though it was an international conference, the majority of the audience were Chinese, although some of the speakers were international. Regardless, the scale of the conference were enormous, as the hosts estimated that there were about 1,600 participants (Fig. 1). Recent trends in research publications and examples of digital library services were presented at this conference. First off, the morning of the grand opening was marked by greetings, welcoming speeches, and congratulatory speeches from important attendees, such as a member of the Jilin Province Provincial People’s Congress Standing Committee and the CEO of CNKI.
