First Call of Proposals QQML2012
Since 2009 QQML has provided an excellent framework for the presentation of new trends and developments in every aspect of Library and Information Science, Technology, Applications and Research.
The 4th QQML2012 was scheduled during the previous 3rd QQML2011 Conference. It was also decided that the 5th QQML 2013 International Conference will be organized in Rome, Italy.
QQML2009, QQML2010 and QQML2011 were successful events both from the number and quality of the presentations and from the post conference publications in Journals and Books.
QQML2012 will continue and expand the related topics.
Papers are invited for this international conference. The conference will consider, but not be limited to, the following indicative themes:
You may send proposals for Special Sessions (4-6 papers) or Workshops (more than 2 sessions) including the title and a brief description at: [email protected] or from the electronic submission at the web page: http://www.isast.org/abstractpaperregister.html
You may also send Abstracts/Papers to be included in the following sessions, to new sessions or as contributed papers at the web page: http://www.isast.org/abstractpaperregister.html

a. structured abstracts (not exceeding 500 words) and presentation;
b. full papers (not exceeding 7,000 words);
c. posters (not exceeding 2,500 words);
d. visual presentations (Pecha kucha). These presentations consist of exactly 20 slides, each of which is displayed for 20 seconds. Total presentation time is precisely 6 minutes 40 seconds and so it is important to use the transition feature in PowerPoint to time your presentation exactly.
