ECIR 2016 is offering a student mentoring programme with the objective 
to help and support students with the writing of their papers to be 
submitted to the ECIR conference – and hereby increase the quality of 
submissions.

The ECIR 2016 conference is to be held in Padua, Italy, 20-23 March 
2016. For more information about the ECIR ´16 conference, please visit 
the conference website: ecir2016.dei.unipd.it <http://ecir2016.dei.unipd.it>

If you are a student who plans to submit a paper to ECIR ´16, you may 
consider the ECIR student mentoring programme. The ECIR student 
mentoring programme offers help, guidance, and feedback on the writing 
of your draft paper by assigning a mentor to you, who help you in 
preparing and maturing the paper for submission.

How to sign up for the ECIR student mentoring programme:
-------------------------------------------------------
1) You send an email to Jaana Kekäläinen (jaana.kekalainen at uta.fi 
<mailto:jaana.kekalainen at uta.fi>). In the email you describe the topic 
of your paper and possibly the problems you might have concerning the 
paper. Signing up takes place in the period of July 6 - August 7, 2015.
2) Then we match you with a relevant and competent scholar, basically 
based on your description of your topic of the paper.
3) We email you the name and email address of the assigned mentor 
(August 21, 2015).
4) You contact by email the mentor with your draft paper (attached the 
email), including an outline of what in particular you need help with, 
that is, what you wish the mentor to focus on in the reading of your 
draft paper.
5) Having read the draft paper the mentor emails the feedback to you. 
This may develop into an email correspondence.

Some notes:
----------
•Please note, when submitting the draft paper to the assigned mentor, 
the paper should be a completed draft that allows the mentor to provide 
you with constructive feedback.
•Do also note that participation in the ECIR student mentoring programme 
does not guarantee acceptance of research papers at the ECIR 2016 
conference.
•Finally, it should be noted that all mentors help out on a voluntary 
basis and should be acknowledge and respected for this willingness to 
contribute their spare time.

Dates:
--------

•Mentors will be assigned: August 21, 2015.
