From candy.schwartz at simmons.edu Tue Mar 8 15:00:42 2005 From: candy.schwartz at simmons.edu (Candy Schwartz) Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2005 15:00:42 -0500 Subject: [Studentchapadv] Student Chapters Message-ID: <000001c52419$82504c50$a7988c86@ad.simmons.edu> Hi all - I am writing in my capacity as Assembly Rep for ASIST Student Chapters. It has taken me a while to get to student chapter stuff, so I apologize for not being in touch sooner. I have just finished going through the student chapter advisors mailing list to see who is who according to that. Now I am checking on who is who according to you. I would much appreciate it if you could do a few simple things for me quickly at this point: 1) E-mail to let me know whether you are or are not the ASIST Student Chapter Advisor for your program or area. If you are not, do you know who is? 2) Check this page - http://www.asis.org/AboutASIS/asist-chapters.html - and tell me whether the information on your chapter is correct, and send me corrections if it is not. Please also click on your chapter's name and see whether the Web site is horribly out of date - updating makes for a nice student project. My immediate plans, after cleaning up the Web pages, are to start a blog for students, chunk the current version of the student chapter manual into useful Web bytes, and send out what notes I have from the last meeting. All other suggestions gratefully accepted.

Eventually I will make it all Web accessible and more useful, but for now this is better than nothing. I also sent a copy to HQ to have linked to the student chapters page.

Until we can set up a blog or whatever for student members, I will forward info that might be of value to your students, and ask that you pass it on. Here is some news for PhD students. Thanks, Candy -----Original Message----- From: Prof. Dr. Rudi Schmiede [mailto:schmiede at ifs.tu-darmstadt.de] Sent: March 9, 2005 4:47 PM To: diglib at infoserv.inist.fr Subject: [DIGLIB] CFP DoctConsortium JCDL2005 Excuse cross postings! 1st Doctoral Consortium of the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries Call for Participation University Corporation for Atmospheric Research Boulder, Colorado (USA) 7 June 2005 What is the Doctoral Consortium? The Doctoral Consortium is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world who are in the course of their dissertation work. (Ph.D. students with dissertations finished or nearly completed should, however, apply for a paper to the regular conference program.) The goal of the Doctoral Consortium is to help students with their thesis by providing feedback to them on their research as well as to give general advice on using the research environment in a constructive and international atmosphere. Students will present and discuss their thesis in the context of a well-known and established international conference outside of their usual university atmosphere. The workshop will be a full day and will be held at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), the home institution of the DLESE Program Center and the NSDL Central Office, followed by a drive to Denver to join the JCDL conference and a group dinner. A very limited number of students will have the oppo! rtunity to participate. Students will be expected to pay their expenses and should plan to attend JCDL 2005, registered as students (see http://www.jcdl2005.org/). Five prominent professors and one experienced practitioner in the field of digital library research in organizations from different countries and continents will conduct the workshop. They will review all the submissions and comment on the content of the thesis as well as on the presentation. If submissions are received outside the scope of expertise of these leaders, additional faculty will be selected to participate in leading the workshop. Students will have 20 minutes to present their research, focusing on the main theme of their thesis, what they have achieved so far and how they plan to continue their work. Another 20 minutes is reserved for discussion and feedback from both the professors and other participants. There will also be time reserved for one-on-one mentoring of students to provide more in-depth feedback. In the course of the workshop students will also get advice on more general questions, e.g. the differences of Ph.D. studies in different countries. Call for Papers and Topics Students interested in participating in the Doctoral Consortium should submit an extended abstract (see details below) describing their Digital Library research. Submissions relating to any aspect of Digital Library research, development, and evaluation are welcomed, including: technical advances, usage and impact studies, policy analyses, social and institutional implications, theoretical contributions, interaction and design advances, and innovative applications in the sciences, humanities, and education. To apply for participation at the Doctoral Consortium, please provide an extended abstract of your doctoral work to http://www.softconf.com/start/JCDL2005/submit.html. Choose Doctoral Consortium as the Submission Type. The extended abstract is restricted to 4000 words (approx. 8 pages). Submissions should be submitted electronically in pdf-format. The abstracts should . clearly formulate the research question, . identify the significant problems in the field of research, . summarize the current knowledge of the problem domain, as well as the state of the art for solutions, . clearly present any preliminary research plans and ideas, and the results achieved so far, . sketch the research methodology that is to be applied, . describe the expected contributions of the applicant to the research area, and . (for technical research) describes how the research is innovative, novel or extends existing approaches to a problem. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, correctness, and clarity. Between 10 and 15 Ph.D. students will be selected to participate in this inaugural workshop. Important Dates . Deadline for submission of abstracts: March 25th, 2005 . Notification of acceptance: April 11th, 2005 . Camera-ready papers due: May 8st, 2005 . Doctoral Consortium: June 7th, 2005 .
