FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS

eLexicography in the 21st century: New challenges, new applications

Organized by the Centre for English Corpus Linguistics (CECL) under
the aegis of the European Association for Lexicography (EURALEX).

Conference theme: Innovative developments in the field of electronic
lexicography

Papers on the following topics are particularly welcome: 

- New technological environments (web-based dictionaries, mobile
  devices, etc.)

- Exploitation of language resources: monolingual and multilingual
  corpora, learner corpora, lexical databases (e.g. WordNet).

- Integration of NLP tools (grammatical annotation, speech synthesis,
  etc.)

- Dictionary writing systems and other software available to the
  lexicographer

- Changes to the dictionary macro- and microstructure afforded by the
  electronic medium (multiple access routes, efficient integration of
  phraseology, etc.)

- Automated customisation of dictionaries in function of users’ needs
  (proficiency level, receptive vs. productive mode, register)

- Integration of electronic dictionaries into language learning and
  teaching (CALL, translator training, etc.)
