Meeting Description:

This interactive virtual workshop seeks to address the growing need. It will
explore a broad scope of issues related to digital language archives --
digital libraries that preserve and provide online access to language data.
The objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers,
practitioners, educators, and students from around the world who are currently
working or are interested in working in different areas related to collecting,
archiving, curating, organizing, and providing access to born-digital or
digitized language data, and evaluation of digital language archives. Workshop
participants will interact and explore solutions to facilitating discovery of
language materials in digital archives, effective and efficient access to
them, and reuse of this rich data. The workshop will help foster
collaborations among information professionals; library and information
science, linguistics, data science, computer science, and humanities
researchers; educators; representatives of language communities (including
indigenous communities, refugees, speakers of under-resourced languages); and
other interested audiences. The event is expected to become the first one in
the series of regular workshops focused on the digital language archives.


Call for Papers: 

Authors are invited to submit original contributions that are not previously
published. The workshop submissions are expected to be short papers between
1500 and 2000 words and would typically include:
 - research question(s) and/or problem(s),
 - background and brief review of relevant literature, 
 - methods / design of research or practical implementation project, 
 - findings or results (could be preliminary for submissions reporting
work-in-progress) and their discussion, 
 - a statement of significance, and
 - conclusions and future work (optional for the work-in-progress
submissions). 

Submissions must follow the style of the ACM Proceedings and should be
submitted by July 30, 2021 through the EasyChair system following the
submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=langarc2021. To
ensure quality, all submissions will be peer-reviewed. Authors are instructed
not to include their identity, affiliation(s) or contact details in the
initial submission, and to anonymize any references that would reveal the
authorship. These details will be added in the final versions of accepted
submissions.

Accepted submissions will be published in the workshop proceedings. At least
one of the authors of each accepted submission must register using the JCDL
registration page to have the paper published in the LangArc-2021 Proceedings
and present at the virtual workshop held on September 30, 2021. 

Authors of accepted LangArc-2021 submissions will be invited to develop full
papers (6000-7500 words) for submission to the special issue of the refereed
journal The Electronic Library. Journal paper submissions should follow The
Electronic Library author formatting guidelines and templates available here
and must be original contributions not previously published and not under
review for publication elsewhere; they will be peer-reviewed by The Electronic
Library editorial board and external reviewers.
