Abstract: In recent years, the research community has demonstrated considerable interest in Digital Culture (DC) and its online presentation, accessibility, exploitation, preservation and reuse through new tools and services to model, analyse and visualize vast amounts of DC data. The focus is on the search of innovations especially in areas/subareas relevant to data management and processing—innovative and creative tools for approaching cultural assets, applications and services for better access to and exploiting of the rich and diverse digital cultural heritage in a sustainable way, intelligent curation, creative use/re-use and remix, reinterpretation, study, understanding, analysis, personalization, adaptation, semantics, protection, restoration, preservation, etc. The research community deals with important issues of handling data directly, affecting the economy (represented by the creative and re-creative industry), the public sector (cultural institutions—museums, libraries, galleries, etc.), education, and society as a whole. This special issue of Serdica Journal of Computing aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of DC.
