*T*he 9th Annual VIVO Conference will be held June 6-8, 2018 in
Durham, NC (conference
web site <http://vivoconference.org/>). The Call for Proposals
<http://vivoconference.org/news/callforproposals> is open until March 18.

*Do you help make scholarly data open, found, and consumed?  If so, we'd
love to hear from you!*  The VIVO conference
<http://vivoconference.org/> covers
a broad range of topics surrounding research information systems.
Particularly for VIVO Conference 2018, our hope is to widen the scope of
presentations and target a broader audience of people working in this
space.  Some topics we plan to feature include:

   - Evaluating and choosing a research information system
   - Sharing success stories and lessons learned during implementations
   - Leveraging the VIVO open source community & Duraspace in your
   institution
   - Measuring the impact of a scholarly work
   - Taking your system to the next level (SEO, custom themes, ontology
   extensions)
   - Supporting collaborative research & team science
   - Building visualizations, social networks, and recommendation engines
   - Incorporating new semantic technologies into VIVO
   - Promoting open data and transparency in scholarship and scholarly data
   - Sharing experiences with research systems other than VIVO
   - Evaluating the impact of scholarship in the humanities and arts
   - Marshalling skills and resources to implement and maintain a research
   information system
   - Leveraging identity management systems and linking VIVOs
   - Enabling international systems and global scholarship
