[Asis-l] 15th SIG-CR workshop

[Mikel Breitenstein]

15th ASIS&T SIG-CR Classification Research Workshop, 2004

Submissions are invited for the annual SIG-CR workshop preceding the ASIS&T
Annual Meeting next November in Providence, Rhode Island. See the ASIS&T
website, www.asis.org, for dates and details later.

The theme for the 2004 SIG-CR Classification Research Workshop is ?More
Than Words?. Organizers are looking for topics that address classification
issues that deal with images, sounds, and objects. The idea is a broad one,
not excluding the traditional words on paper format, but addressing special
aspects of classifying a particular form. Examples include but are not limited
to videos, sound recordings, clothing, sculpture, machinery, postcards,
posters, maps, letters, and books with a particular characteristic.

Interested authors should submit a brief paper (maximum 6 pages, single
spaced, Times Roman 12 pt.) by May 1. See attached file for more paper format
details. All papers will be reviewed by at least two referees. All accepted
papers will be published in the 15th Advances in Classification Research
series by Information Today. Approximately 8 accepted papers will be selected
by the reviewers for brief presentation at the workshop. Authors will be
notified of acceptance by June 15.

All workshop attendees are invited to bring a small (max 24 inch x 36inch)
display or poster
on any topic that relates to the workshop. Creativity is encouraged
in designing these information displays. Posters/displays will be displayed
in the
workshop room, and ample time will be allowed during the lunch break for
attendees to talk with others informally about their posters. We hope that
this will add to the collaborative workshop mood of the day.

Submit all papers by email or on a CD-R in Rich Text Format or Microsoft
Word format (PC or MAC). The file should be titled: SIGCRpaper-your full
name.format. Send papers postmarked by May 1, 2004 to:
