*4. **My LREC Conference program*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Over the years, the number of sessions and papers which compose the LREC
2012 programme have become huge. To help you select the sessions you are
interested in and design your own programme, we have developed the tool
MyProgram <http://www.lrec-conf.org/lrec2012/spip.php?page=program>
<http://www.lrec-conf.org/lrec2012/spip.php?page=program>. With this
tool, you can plan your attendance to the conference (day-by-day, or for
the 3 days) and produce the corresponding PDF which you can either print
or import in your calendar.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*5. DocCollection*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A collection of manuscripts and hardcopies of documents will take place
at LREC 2012 in order to constitute a corpus for document analysis and
structuring. If you would like to contribute, please get in touch with
the DocCollection team led by Maÿlis Bodin (bodin at elda.org
<boding at elda.org>). A prize will be awarded by random drawing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A survey on the community needs regarding the crowdsourcing approach to
produce resources or conduct evaluations wil be conducted. If you would
