CALL FOR PAPERS: DRH 2002
>>>>Deadline extended to 15 March 2002<<<<
The DRH conferences
The annual Digital Resources for the Humanities conference is the major
forum for all those involved in, and affected by, the digitization of our
cultural heritage: the scholar creating or using an electronic resource to
further research; the teacher gathering Web resources into an online
learning environment; the publisher or broadcaster integrating print or
analogue with the digital to reach new audiences; the librarian, curator
or archivist wishing to improve both access to and conservation of the
digital information that characterizes contemporary culture and
scholarship; the computer or information scientist seeking to apply new
developments to the creation, exploitation and management of humanities
resources. A volume of selected papers from the conferences is published
annually by the Office for Humanities Communication at King's College
London. See
http://www.drh.org.uk/.
DRH 2002
DRH 2002 will be held at the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh University
Library, George Square, Edinburgh EH8 9LJ, Scotland UK, from 8th-11th
September 2002. Conference information will be posted on the Web site at
http://www.drh2002.lib.ed.ac.uk/
Format
The academic programme of the conference will comprise academic papers,
panel discussions, and poster presentations. An exhibition of products and
services of interest to participants will form an important part of the
conference. The conference is known for its friendly atmosphere and
welcomes developers and users of digital resources from, amongst others,
universities, libraries, archives, museums, galleries, broadcasters,
publishers and community groups. The conference social programme will, we
hope, encourage informal discussion and the chance to make lasting
contacts between members of the different groups represented.
Themes
The Conference Programme Committee seeks proposals for papers, panel
sessions, and posters relating to the creation and use of digital
resources in all aspects of work in the humanities.
Prospective speakers are asked to bear in
mind the following points:
- Paper and session proposals should seek to develop themes and
intellectual approaches which will be of interest and relevance across the
subject domain. It is not sufficient simply to outline recent work on an
individual project. Papers should take account of, and seek to address,
strategic themes across the subject domain.
- Preference will be given to papers which outline innovative technical
approaches or explore subject areas which have been generally neglected by
the conference communities.
Areas on which DRH conferences have concentrated have included the
creation of digital resources, providing access to digital projects, the
application of digital resources to teaching and research, and digital
preservation. The Conference Programme Committee of DRH 2002 will
particularly welcome proposals which relate to the following themes:
- Provision and management of access
- Digital libraries, archives and museums
- Time-based media and multimedia studies in music and performing arts
- Other social sciences where these overlap significantly with the
humanities
- Network technologies used to support international community programmes
- The anticipated convergence between televisual, communication and
computing media and its effect on the humanities
- Information analysis, design and modelling
in humanities research
- Knowledge representation, including visualization and simulation
Submitting Proposals The deadline for submitting proposals is 15th March,
2002; notifications of acceptance will be sent out by 19th April 2002.
Proposals should be submitted using the Call for Papers link to the online
Web form from the conference Web page at http://www.drh2002.lib.ed.ac.uk/
or (if you are unable to use Web forms) by email to
DRH2002@arts.gla.ac.uk.
Your submission should be text only, with no word processor formatting or
graphics (final submissions of accepted papers may include graphics).
Please note that all participants in the conference, including speakers,
are expected to pay their own travel, conference and accommodation costs.
All proposals will be reviewed by at least two referees with relevant
expertise. The final decision on acceptance into the conference programme
rests with the Programme Committee.
For all types of proposal, authors are encouraged to provide a clear
overview of the work to be presented; state how the proposal relates to
the themes of the conference; outline any original or innovative methods,
technical solutions or conclusions; outline the demonstrable value of the
work to the broad humanities community. It is essential that the proposal
makes clear how the work to be presented relates to the relevant work in
the field.
All proposals should be submitted in English. All proposals should include
full name, institutional affiliation, postal address, telephone and email
details for all participants.
Papers: We invite proposals for conference papers lasting no more than 25
minutes. Proposals should be between 750 and 1,000 words. Papers will be
grouped into sessions of three papers.
You are welcome to propose a session of three papers relating to a
specific theme. In this case, session organisers should provide a clear
description (c.250 words) of how the papers relate to each other, in
addition to the three abstracts. Please note that all proposals for
papers, whether individual submissions or part of a themed session, will
be independently reviewed.
Themed Panel Sessions: We invite proposals for themed panel sessions
lasting no more than 90 minutes. Proposals should be between 1,000-1,500
words. The panel organiser should include details of the individuals or
organisations who have agreed to form the panel. Panel sessions are
intended to provide a forum for discussion of a specific theme or issue,
introduced by panel members.
Posters: We invite proposals for posters. Proposals should be between 500
and 750 words. Posters provide the opportunity for a visual, rather than
oral, presentation of work within an informal atmosphere. Posters will be
on display throughout the conference in a prominent area. Posters should
not include software demonstrations. Where a software demonstration is
required, the proposer should apply to be an exhibitor at the academic
rate.
Conference Publications: A book of abstracts, containing the revised
versions of all accepted papers, panel sessions and posters, will be
provided to all conference delegates. These abstracts will also be
published on the conference web site. A volume of Selected Papers will be
published following the conference. All presenters who wish their paper to
be considered for publication will be asked to submit a full version of
their paper before the end of the conference.
Organisation: The Programme Committee, which has responsibility for the
academic programme of the conference, is chaired by Jean Anderson,
University of Glasgow (j.anderson@arts.gla.ac.uk).
The Programme Committee members are:
Frances Abercromby, University of Edinburgh (Local Organizer)
Lou Burnard, University of Oxford
Marilyn Deegan, University of Oxford
Mike Fraser , University of Oxford
David Green, NINCH
Lorna Hughes, New York University
Derek Law , University of Strathclyde
