Meeting Description:

This interactive virtual workshop seeks to address a 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 already 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 is
intended to 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 the second one in the series
of regular workshops focused on the digital language archives. The 1st
International Workshop on Digital Language Archives was held online on
September 30, 2021, as part of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on
Digital Libraries 2021.

Call for Papers:

The topics that we would like to call for submissions include but are
not limited to:
- social, political, legislative, economic, administrative, and other
factors that affect digital language archives;
- archivists' partnerships with language communities for providing
access to language materials in their local cultural and historical
collections;
- ethical implications of language archiving and providing access to
legacy and family materials, materials for which provenance is unknown
or sketchy;
- user studies, including examinations of user needs, usability and
user experience evaluations in digital language archives;
- approaches, methods and techniques for collection development
(including selection and digitization of materials, self-deposit and
mediated deposit practices), information architecture, information
organization, metadata, information retrieval (including multi-lingual
and cross-lingual), quality assurance, etc. in digital language
archives;
- evaluations (case studies and comparative analyses) of various
features of digital language archives;
- education endeavors to support language data archiving and curation;
theory and history of digital language archives.
