would also welcome chapters on

 Personalized Access to Cultural Heritage (PATCH 2015) @ IUI Conference
 !! Deadline January 16th 2015

 http://patch2015.wordpress.com/

 The 8th International Workshop on Personalized Access to Cultural Heritage
 (PATCH 2015) is co-located with the ACM Intelligent User Interfaces 2015
 Conference in Atlanta, GA, USA, 29 March – 1 April 2015.

 The primary goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers 
 practitioners who are working on various aspects of cultural heritage and
 are interested in exploring the potential of state of the art technology
 (onsite as well as online) to enhance the CH visit experience. The expected
 result of the workshop is a multidisciplinary research agenda that will
 inform future research directions and hopefully, forge some research
 collaborations.

 The PATCH workshop series is the meeting point between state of the art
 cultural heritage research and personalization using technology to enhance
 the personal experience in cultural heritage sites.

 We aim at building a research agenda for personalization in CH in order to
 make the individual CH experience a link in a chain of a lifelong CH
 experience which builds on past experience, is linked to daily life and
 provides the foundation for future experiences. The workshop aims to be
 multi-disciplinary. It is intended for researchers, practitioners, and
 students of information and communication technologies (ICT), cultural
 heritage domains (museums, archives, libraries, and more), and
 personalization.

 Submission:

 Deadline for submissions is 16 January, 2015.

 Paper submissions should follow the general 
 http://iui.acm.org/2015/authors.html ACM SigCHI format (i.e. the same as
 the IUI paper format)  http://iui.acm.org/2015/authors.html submission
 guidelines and must comply with the formatting instructions:
 §  Full papers: max. 10 pages
 §  Position papers: max. 4 pages
 §  Short papers: max. 4 pages
 §  Demo papers: max. 4 pages

 All papers should be submitted in PDF format via the 
 https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=patchiui2015 online
 submission
 system. An international panel of experts will review all submissions.

 Demos need to provide links to the systems presented. Work that has already
 been published should not be submitted unless it introduces a significant
 addition to the previously published work.

and how we can carry that over to our libraries. You’ll also receive a
free copy of his book, The Age of the Platform.

So submit your ideas now for a 20 minute session, 5 minute lightning
talk or volunteer to lead a group on a topic of your choice:

Please see below the extended deadline for paper submissions to JCDL 2010.



Call for Papers http://www.jcdl-icadl2010.org/

Joint Conference on Digital Libraries JCDL 2010

June 21-25, 2010  Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.

http://www.jcdl2010.orghttp://www.jcdl2010.org/

Paper Submission Deadline Extended to February 1

Sponsored by ACM SIGIR, ACM SIGWEB, ASIST, and IEEE-CS TCDL

The ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) is the major 
international research forum focused on digital libraries and associated 
technical, practical, and social issues. JCDL encompasses the many meanings of 
the term digital libraries, including (but not limited to) new forms of 
information institutions; operational information systems with all manner of 
digital content; new means of selecting, collecting, organizing, distributing, 
and evaluating digital content; and theoretical models of information media, 
including document genres and electronic publishing. Digital libraries are 
distinguished from information retrieval systems because they include more 
types of media, provide additional functionality and services, and include 
other stages of the information life cycle, from creation through use. Digital 
libraries can also be viewed as an extension of the services libraries 
currently provide.

The theme of JCL 2010 is “Digital Libraries – 10 years past, 10 years forward, 
a 2020 vision”. This theme reflects the fact that the context in which digital 
libraries were originally conceived has significantly changed in the context of 
new information models embodied in Web 2.0 and popular social networking 
applications. In this spirit, we are especially interested in papers that 
address and demonstrate new models of collaborative, participatory information 
interaction increasingly ubiquitous in the Web 2.0 context.

JCDL 2010 invites submissions of papers and proposals for posters, 
demonstrations, tutorials, and workshops that will make the conference an 
exciting and creative event to attend. As always, the conference welcomes 
contributions from all the fields that intersect to enable Digital Libraries. 
Topics include, but are not limited to:

•   Collaborative and participatory information environments

•   Cyberinfrastructure architectures, applications, and deployments

•   Data mining/extraction of structure from networked information

•   Digital library and Web Science curriculum development

•   Evaluation of online information environments

•   Impact and evaluation of digital information in education

•   Information policy and copyright law

•   Personal digital information management

•   Retrieval and browsing

•   Social networks and networked information

•   Social-technical perspectives of digital information

•   Studies of human factors in networked information

•   Systems, algorithms, and models for data preservation

•   Theoretical models of information interaction and organization

•   Visualization of large-scale information environments

Important Dates

• All papers are due Monday, February 1, 2010 at 5 PM EST.
• Demonstration submissions are due Monday, February 8, 2010 at 5 PM 
EST.
• Tutorial proposals are due Monday, February 8, 2010 at 5 PM EST.
• Poster submissions are due Monday, February 15, 2010 at 5 PM EST.
