Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce that the submission deadline for the Special
Collection "Language Datasets Reuse: Opportunities, Challenges, and Best
Practices" has been extended to March 1st, 2026.
The call for papers is still open! This Special Collection will be
featured in the _Journal of Open Humanities Data (JOHD)_ and focuses on
the reuse of language data across the humanities. We invite
contributions that explore how existing mono- and multilingual language
datasets (in any modality) have been reused in research.
We are particularly interested in papers that:
*
Present case studies on the reuse of deposited language datasets
(preferably those created by researchers other than the authors).
*
Explore how dataset reuse has led to the creation of new datasets.
*
Reflect on both successful and less successful experiences with language
data reuse, highlighting challenges encountered and lessons learned.
*
Offer position papers on strategies for data creators to maximize the
future reuse potential of language datasets.
Submission format: Discussion Paper (3,000-5,000 words).
Discussion papers should provide in-depth narratives illustrating the
reuse of existing language datasets or showcase approaches to dataset
design with reuse in mind. Submissions should adhere to the specific
template provided for this Special Collection.
New Submission Deadline: March 1st, 2026
