Hypertext '99 is the 10th in the premier international series of ACM conferences on hypertext and hypermedia. The conference will provide a forum where attendees can present, exchange and discuss original ideas and experiences relating to hypermedia and the use of hypermedia concepts and technologies in special domains, such as authoring, publishing, databases, human-computer interaction, digital libraries, electronic literature, computer-supported cooperative work, operating systems, software engineering, education, and of course global information systems such as the World Wide Web.

Hypertext '99 will have a wide range of tracks and activities, with submissions being invited in the categories of full papers, short papers, panels, workshops, courses, posters, demonstrations and a doctoral consortium.
We also will be making two very special awards, the Engelbart Prize for the Best Paper and the new Nelson Award for the best paper from a newcomer.
We also have two excellent keynote speakers, with Mark Bernstein from the electronic literature publishing house, Eastgate Systems, and Robert Cailliau, chair of the International World Wide Web Conference Committee and one of the two original developers of the first Web software at CERN.
