Call for papers

Open Session for the Classification & Indexing Section

"Dynamic Subject Access: Evolution and Transformation?"

The Classification & Indexing Sections will be organizing an open session during the 2015 conference in Cape Town.  We are seeking papers addressing new and interesting ways of supplying subject access. Subject access tools and services are not limited to libraries only: important developments are (also) happening elsewhere. We would like to explore novel ways of exposing library subject metadata to other communities and, on the other hand, libraries using subject access tools developed by others. Topics include:

·         big data & subject access

·         use and reuse of subject metadata and tools

·         the chain of supply in the creation of subject metadata

·         providing form/genre access in addition to subject access


Important Dates
6 February 2015 - Deadline for submitting 1,200 word proposals for papers and presentations. Proposals may be submitted in English or French. A brief biographical statement of speaker(s) should also be submitted. Information should include: title of presentation; subthemes that it addresses, a short abstract, all authors, noting likely presenter; institutional affiliations; contact information, including all email addresses.
9 March 2015   Successful proposals will be identified and information sent to all who submit proposals.
1 May 2015 - Deadline for submission of final paper and abstract. Deadline for submitting full papers and presentations, plus a brief biographical statement of speaker(s). Papers should be no more than 2000 words and can be submitted in English or French.  Attempts will be made to provide translations into other official languages. Information should include: title of presentation; subthemes that it addresses, abstract, all authors, noting likely presenter; institutional affiliations; contact information, including all email addresses.
