IDCC10 - initial impressions

It's now nearly a week since our sixth conference in Chicago finished, and my initial impressions are that it was a great success. With over 270 people registered for the conference itself, and many others attending the events scheduled around it, we had the largest attendance yet for IDCC. But success isn't just measured by numbers; we also had some excellent keynote speakers, a diverse set of papers and a real feeling of engagement shown in the questions being asked and in the conversations taking place outside the sessions.

IDCC10 paper selection begins

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.
