AIMS

The field of digital libraries has undergone dramatic changes as digital
collections grow in scale and diversity. These changes call for novel
analytical tools and methodologies for making sense of large amounts of
heterogeneous data, for deriving diverse kinds of knowledge, and for
linking across different collections and research disciplines. Thus the
theme of the 2017 conference is #TOScale #TOAnalyze #TODiscover. Digital
libraries must improve outreach efforts, engage diverse communities, and
provide scholars and users with effective and flexible access to materials
which will in turn empower them to make new observations and discoveries.
This year, we particularly invite papers, panels, workshops, and tutorials
that present new discovery methods for diverse kinds of collections and
datasets (e.g., documents, images, sounds, videos), that apply recent
technologies in related fields like machine learning and data mining, and
that report on innovative digital library applications that engage diverse
communities, facilitate user access, and enable discovery and exploration
in all domains including science, art, and the humanities.



This year, in addition to the research-oriented program, we are organizing
a practitioners’ day so experts and practitioners can share their
experiences and report on major projects. Practitioner contributions will
take the form of posters and demos.

Participation is sought from all parts of the world and from the full range
of established and emerging disciplines and professions including computer
science, information science, web science, data science, digital
humanities, librarianship, data management, archival science and practice,
museum studies and practice, information technology, medicine, social
sciences, education and the humanities. Representatives from academe,
government, industry, and others are invited to participate.



TOPICS

JCDL welcomes submissions from researchers and practitioners interested in
all aspects of digital libraries such as: collection discovery and
development, hybrid physical/digital collections; knowledge discovery;
applications
of machine learning and AI; services; digital preservation; system design;
scientific data management; infrastructure and service design;
implementation; interface design; human-computer interaction; performance
evaluation; user research; crowdsourcing and human computation; intellectual
property; privacy; electronic publishing; document genres; multimedia; user
communities; and associated theoretical topics. Submissions that resonate
with JCDL 2017 theme are especially welcome, although we will give equal
consideration to all topics in digital libraries.



SUBMISSIONS

Full papers report on mature work, or efforts that have reached an
important milestone, and must not exceed 10 pages. Accepted full papers
will typically be presented in 20 minutes with 10 minutes for questions and
discussion.

Short papers may highlight preliminary results to bring them to the
community’s attention. They may also present theories or systems that can
be described concisely in the limited space. Short papers must not exceed 4
pages in the conference format. Accepted short papers will typically be
presented in 10 minutes with 5 minutes for questions and discussion.

Posters permit presentation of late-breaking results in an informal,
interactive manner. Demonstrations showcase innovative digital library
technologies and applications, allowing you to share your work directly
with your colleagues in a high-visibility setting. Proposals for posters or
demonstrations should consist of a title, extended abstract, and contact
information for the authors, and should not exceed 2 pages in the
conference format. Accepted posters and demonstrations will be displayed at
the conference.

All paper submissions (full/short papers, posters and demos) should use the
ACM Proceedings template and are to be submitted in electronic format via
the conference's EasyChair submission page [forthcoming-see website for
link http://2017.jcdl.org/call-for-papers]. All accepted papers will be
published by the ACM as conference proceedings and electronic versions will
be included in both the ACM and IEEE digital libraries.
