[Asis-l] Call for Papers - JCDL 2012 Doctoral Consortium

[Freund, Luanne]

The Doctoral Consortium of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) 2012 
Call for Participation – June 10, 2012  -  Submission Deadline Extended to April 14, 2012

The Doctoral Consortium is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world who are in the early phases of their dissertation work. Ideally, students should have written or be close to completing a thesis proposal, and be far enough away from finishing the thesis that they can make good use of the feedback from the consortium.

The workshop will take place on June 10, 2012, the same day as the tutorials.

There is no registration fee for doctoral students who are accepted for the Doctoral Consortium.

Students interested in participating in the Doctoral Consortium should submit an extended abstract describing their Digital Library research.

Full details are available from the conference website: http://www.jcdl2012.info/?q=doctoral-consortium

The submission deadline is 14th April 2012 at midnight Hawaiian Time.
Doctoral Consortium Abstracts are to be submitted via EasyChair at: http://www.easychair.org/conferences?conf=jcdl2012
