CFP: 8th International Conference on Digital Libraries for Musicology (In Association with IAML 2021), July 28-30, 2021

The Digital Libraries for Musicology (DLfM) conference presents a venue for those engaging with Digital Library systems and content in the domain of music and musicology. It provides a forum for musicians, musicologists, librarians, and technologists to share findings and expertise.

CALL FOR PAPERS
The 8th DLfM conference (https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdlfm.web.ox.ac.uk%2Fhome&data=04%7C01%7Cclaire.arthur%40gatech.edu%7Ce4f43baa3cae459627dd08d8cdd51006%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C0%7C0%7C637485662267158678%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=J0GbFOhMkMsSRY7FJqcQ%2FPy%2BBiOCWLjTi7tXojDEnDw%3D&reserved=0>), to be held online, welcomes contributions related to any aspect of digital libraries and musicology, including topics related to musical archiving and retrieval, cataloguing and classification, musical databases, special collections, music encodings and representations, computational musicology, or music information retrieval (MIR). This year’s conference will be held in association with the online IAML Congress (https://www.iaml.info/congresses/2021-online<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iaml.info%2Fcongresses%2F2021-online&data=04%7C01%7Cclaire.arthur%40gatech.edu%7Ce4f43baa3cae459627dd08d8cdd51006%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C0%7C0%7C637485662267168636%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=yHiWD9RE8QAE0rB9yWCjd1CQYyYbk2LHrcpv7dpvj7Q%3D&reserved=0>), and will feature a joint paper session as well as a joint poster session. In bringing these two conferences together we aim to encourage new collaborations and foster larger group discussions surrounding prominent issues in the digital humanities.

This year’s theme of “bridging the gap” is designed to bring together scholars working across the niche subfields of digital libraries and humanities, computational musicology, and MIR with the aim of broadening the understanding of the needs, obstacles, and optimal outcomes within each of these subfields in the DLfM community, and how outcomes in one area can best be applied to (or served by) another.

The conference strongly encourages papers and posters that address this year’s theme, however, we welcome all papers addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM. Specific examples of topics traditionally covered at DLfM can be found at https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdlfm.web.ox.ac.uk%2Fhome&data=04%7C01%7Cclaire.arthur%40gatech.edu%7Ce4f43baa3cae459627dd08d8cdd51006%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C0%7C0%7C637485662267168636%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=ufdwJkClmFW0MRE2YNRdIrUsDgRbrO%2B%2BQhxQdaoYwhQ%3D&reserved=0>. We are planning for our proceedings to be published in ACM ICPS as an Open Access publication.

In light of the challenges surrounding conference planning and travel during a pandemic, this year’s DLfM conference will be entirely virtual.  The conference organizers are striving to make an engaging and interactive conference while we patiently and eagerly anticipate a return to in-person conferences in 2022.
