[Sigmet-officers] Any SIG/MET Contributions to the Next ISSI Newsletter?

[Dietmar Wolfram]

Hi,

The ISSI newsletter is seeking contributions for its next issue. Balazs Schlemmer, technical editor for the newsletter, would welcome any of the following:

"1) conference calls (including workshops, summer/winter schools, seminars etc.),
2) news / short communications...
   a) ...focusing on milestones/curiosities from the world of scientometrics/informetrics
   b) ...about outstanding personal achievements (awards, honorary doctorates etc.) in the field
   c) ...being relevant to the community in any other way
3) articles fitting in the profile of the Newsletter
4) book or software reviews
5) reports, photo reports of major conferences/workshops held recently
6) editorial
etc.

When applicable, photos, charts and other illustrations are most welcome.
(Please don't forget to provide source data (e.g. Excel sheets) for charts and make sure that the photos/illustrations are of high quality!)"

The editorial deadline is June 17, 2013 (Monday).

This may represent a good opportunity to promote upcoming SIG activities like the student paper contest, the EBRP dataset (if the details are known by June 1st), and the workshop (at least as a heads up even if the outcome won't be known until later). 

Kind regards,
Dietmar
