Call For Papers: Special Issue on Open Repositories 2009 |
|
| Deadline for declaring intent to submit: August 15, 2009 Deadline for submissions: September 15, 2009 Repositories are being deployed in a variety of environments (education, research, science, cultural heritage) and contexts (national, regional, institutional, project, lab, personal). Regardless of setting, context or scale, repositories are increasingly expected to operate across administrative and disciplinary boundaries and to interact with distributed computational services and social communities. The many repository platforms available today are changing the nature of scholarly communication. Institutions such as universities, research laboratories, publishers, libraries, and commercial organizations are creating innovative repository-based systems that address the entire lifecycle of information-from supporting the creation and management of digital content, to enabling use, re-use, and interconnection of information, to ultimately ensuring long-term preservation and archiving. |

Call For Papers: Special Issue on Information Access to Cultural Heritage |
|
Deadline extended to: 15 June 2009 Advanced information access and retrieval technology is opening up new vistas for cultural heritage organizations wishing to reach a broader audience with their collections. Research and development for cultural heritage access is stimulated by the emergence of communities of users on-line and by the momentum and scope of current initiatives to digitize content and connect collections. If digital access to cultural heritage is to be effective, innovative and robust, challenges related to the variety and richness of cultural heritage resources and to the diverse range of users with varying information needs and search behaviors must be overcome. |
