    1. Annual Meeting of the Society for Digital Humanities: “Crossroads: Scholarship for an Uncertain World” (all-day)
      May 28 – May 30

      http://digitalmedievalist.wordpress.com/2012/01/09/cfp-society-for-digital-humanities-societe-pour-letude-des-medias-interactifs/

      The society would like in particular to encourage submissions relating to the central theme of the Congress–“Crossroads: Scholarship for an Uncertain World.” While this year’s Congress theme is well suited to the interests of SDH/SEMI, we encourage submissions on all topics relating to both theory and practice in the evolving field of the digital humanities.

      Our keynote speaker and recipient of this year’s award for Outstanding Achievement for Computing in the Arts and Humanities is Ronald Tetreault (Dalhousie University).

      The conference will also present joint sessions with ACCUTE and Canadian Game Studies Association/Association Canadienne d’Études Vidéoludiques (http://sdh-semi.org/). Proposals should specify any preference for inclusion in this joint session.

      Proposals for papers (20 min.), posters, and panels or roundtables (2-6 speakers for a 1½ hour session) will be accepted until 1 February 2012 and must be submitted at http://www.sdh-semi.org/conference/. Abstracts should be between 200 and 400 words long, and should clearly indicate the paper’s thesis, methodology and conclusions. There is a limited amount of funding available to support graduate student travel. Please note that all presenters must be members of SDH/SEMI at the time of the conference.

      Selected papers from the conference will appear in a special collection published in the society journal, Digital Studies/Le champ numérique (http://www.digitalstudies.org).

      Program committee: Brent Nelson (program chair), Aimée Morrison (local organizer), Eric Moore, Harvey Quamen, Jon Saklofske, Susan Brown, Stéfan Sinclair, Dan O’Donnell, Michael Eberle-Sinatra

    1. Beyond Accessibility: Textual Studies in the 21st Century (all-day)
      Jun 8 – Jun 10

      http://digitalmedievalist.wordpress.com/2011/12/12/beyond-accessibility-textual-studies-in-the-21st-century/

      Call for Papers

      The Textual Studies team of INKE (Implementing New Knowledge Environments) wish to invite presentation proposals for Beyond Accessibility: Textual Studies in the 21st Century . June 8, 9, and 10, 2012, University of Victoria, Victoria BC, Canada.
      Keynote speakers: Adriaan van der Weel (Leiden University) and Sydney Shep, (Victoria University of Wellington)

      At the end of the 20th century, textual studies witnessed a revolution in accessibility to texts with the explosion of the internet. Now we simply take it for granted that digital processes infuse every step of our study, editing, production, and dissemination of texts. The Textual Studies team of INKE invites presentations that address the questions “What is the state of textual studies in the 21st century? What is the important work of textual studies in the 21st century? What are the outstanding issues, challenges, concerns, emerging trends, methods, attitudes, and exciting developments in textual scholarship? Papers may address such questions as

      * What is the state of the scholarly edition after the transition from print to print and digital?
      * What is the impact on the material book and on book history of the different kinds of access enabled by the digital medium?
      * How have authorship attribution studies been transformed by access to so many more searchable texts?
      * How has the new age of access to materials affected the state of textual studies in various regions of the globe?
      * How well are scholars being served by traditional and emerging infrastructures for the study, creation, production, and dissemination of texts?
      * What is the future of, for example, the study of readership and letter writing, genetic editing, and reception history?

      INKE is a multi-national, multi-disciplinary research initiative, funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and partnering organizations, to study, develop, and implement digital environments for reading and research (www.inke.ca). The Textual Studies Team of INKE is researching ways in which the age of manuscript and print production can inform our development and implementation of electronic reading technologies.

      We invite proposals for papers, posters/demonstrations, and roundtable discussions that address these and other issues pertinent to research in textual studies. Proposals should contain a title, a detailed and focussed abstract (of approximately 300 words) plus list of works cited, and the names, affiliations, and Website URLs of presenters. Please send proposals before 15 December 2011 to richard.cunningham@acadiau.ca.

      Potential participants in the conference, particularly those coming from abroad, might be interested to take advantage of the Digital Humanities Summer Institute, which will just before our conference, from 4-8 June, also at the University of Victoria (http://www.dhsi.org/). A limited number of scholarships for workshop tuition will be available for graduate students participating in the Beyond Accessibility conference. Also of potential interest is the annual conference of the Society for Digital Humanities (SDH/SEMI) at the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences at Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, 28-30 May, 2012 (http://www.sdh-semi.org/).

      This institute will provide participants with three weeks in which (1) to develop hands on experience with TEI-XML, (2) to apply methods from information retrieval, text visualization, and corpus and computational linguistics to the analysis of textual and linguistic sources in the humanities, (3) to rethink not only their own research agendas but also new relationships between their work and non-specialists.

      Tufts University invites applications to “Working with Text in a Digital Age”, a three-week NEH Institute for Advanced Technology in the Digital Humanities (July 23-August 10, 2012) that combines traditional topics such as TEI Markup with training in methods from Information Retrieval, Visualization, and Corpus and Computational Linguistics. Faculty, graduate students, and library professionals are encouraged to apply. Applicants should submit proposals by February 15, 2012. Participant proposals must include CVs and statements of purpose (no more than 1,000 words) describing how they will be able to use participation in the Institute to advance their subsequent careers. Participants must be committed to collaborative work and to publication of results from this Institute under a Creative Commons license. Participants should identify source materials with which they propose to work during the Institute and which must be in the public domain or available under a suitable license. In an ideal case, source materials would include both texts for intensive analysis and annotation and one or more larger corpora to be mined and analyzed more broadly. Statements of purpose must describe initial goals for the Institute. For more information or to submit applications, please contact lisa dot cerrato at tufts dot edu.

      Call for papers

      For the second session, comprising 6-8 papers, the committee is now making a call for theoretically and methodologically informed papers on:

      - Stemmatology in theory and practice
      - The Lachmannian approach (old and new)
      - From qualitative to quantitative methods
      - Quantitative methods applied to stemmatology
      - ‘Old’ vs. ‘New’ (or ‘Material’) Philology
      - The study of variants
      - Digital editing of texts from the manuscript age

      Proposals should be submitted in the form of an abstract (max 800 words) by the 15th February 2012. The planning committee and appointed referees will review abstracts and select papers. The authors of the selected papers will be notified of their status by the end of May 2012.

      The official languages of the meeting are Italian and English. Consequently, abstracts can be submitted in one of these two languages. If your proposal is accepted and you plan to give your talk in Italian, you are kindly requested to use English either in your handout or in your Powerpoint slides. This would help participation in the final discussion.

      Please note that talks should last no more than 35 minutes. 10 more minutes will be available for questions. Make sure that people do have time for questions at the end of your presentation (do not exceed 35 minutes).

      Submissions of abstracts and other enquiries

      Please submit the abstract of your paper as a Word or PDF file to Dr. Raffaele Cioffi . He will also help with general enquiries about the meeting.

      Venue

      Sala Convegni del Banco Popolare, Via San Cosimo 10, Verona.

      There is no charge for attending the meeting. The meeting will extend from lunch on Thursday 13 to lunch on Saturday 15 September.

      Accommodation

      Please see the list of hotels in central Verona, in Word or in PDF.

      Unfortunately, we cannot by now guarantee the speakers in the call for papers section any reimbursement for their travel and accommodation expenses. Partial or full refund will depend upon availability of funds.

    1. 1. Internationale Bibliometrie-Konferenz und Fachmesse. “Bibliometrische Standards in Geistes- und Naturwissenschaften: Aktueller Stand und zukünftige Trends” (all-day)
      Sep 18 – Sep 20

      Wissenschaft qualitativ und quantitativ zu messen ist keineswegs trivial. Dagegen kann der Forschungsoutput (Veröffentlichungen und deren Wahrnehmung) quantitativ erfasst werden. Allerdings können bibliometrische Verfahren nicht beliebig auf die unterschiedlichen Fachgebiete angewendet werden, je nach Gebiet differiert der Veröffentlichungs- und Nutzungsprozess immens.
      Im Rahmen dieser Tagung sollen die aktuellen Entwicklungen von bibliometrischen Verfahren in den einzelnen Forschungsdisziplinen erörtert werden. Hauptaugenmerk ist die Möglichkeit, wissenschaftliche Publikationen in den Geisteswissenschaften und deren Rezeption in der Forschung zu ermitteln. Im Vergleich zu diesem innovativen Tätigkeitsfeld sollen auch die „state of the art“-Methoden in den Naturwissenschaften vorgestellt werden.
      Die Tagung richtet sich an Bibliometriker, Bibliothekare, Wissenschaftler aller Fachrichtungen, Informationsdienstleister sowie an Entscheidungsträger in Wissenschaft und Forschung.
