We're pleased to announce that the full programme for the forthcoming International Digital Curation Conference has now been released. Day 1 includes an exciting range of keynote and plenary speakers with a wide variety of perspectives on digital curation and research data management. It also features the best of the submitted, peer-reviewed papers - on a topical subject of education for e-science professionals.
"Participation and Practice: Growing the Curation Community through the Data Decade"
6-8 December 2010, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
This year’s International Digital Curation Conference (IDCC) is presented jointly by the Digital Curation Centre, UK and the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and in partnership with the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI).
Paper submissions for this year's International Digital Curation Conference (IDCC10) closed on Monday 9th August. The task of assigning reviewers is now complete and their work is beginning in earnest. We've had 45 proposals for research and practice papers this year, greater than in any previous year. That inevitably means some difficult decisions ahead and some authors are likely to be disappointed. On a more positive note, it promises a high quality of presentation and debate at the conference this December in Chicago.
