March 28-29, 2009

School of Library and Information Studies Helen C. White Hall Madison, Wisconsin USA
URL: http://thedocumentacademy.org/?q=node/4
DOCAM ’09 is the sixth Annual meeting of the Document Academy, an international network of scholars, artists and professionals in various fields interested in the exploration of the document as a useful approach, concept and tool in Sciences, Arts, Business, and Society.
The aim of The Document Academy is to create an interdisciplinary space for experimental and critical research on documents in a wide sense, drawing on traditions and experiences around the world. It originated as a co-sponsored effort by The Program of Documentation Studies, University of Tromso, Norway and the School of Information, University of California, Berkeley. For 2009, the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Library and Information Studies will be hosting the meeting.
The conference will run from 9 AM Saturday, March 28, to 5 PM Sunday, March 29. In order to keep the open-ended discussion atmosphere of previous DOCAMs alive along with a growing number of participants, we have decided to have only plenary sessions and a relatively limited, but well-selected number of presentations.

Scholars, developers, artists and practitioners working with document research and development are invited to submit proposals for full and short papers for plenary sessions and exhibits by December 1, 2008.
Full papers for plenary sessions will address these themes:

Length: 6000-7500 words
Short papers for plenary sessions will focus on
- DOCUMENT RESEARCH (theory, methods, case-studies)
Length: 2400—3600 words
Each author or group of authors of FULL papers will have 45 minutes for their presentation, including discussion; authors or groups presenting SHORT papers will be allotted 30 minutes. The order of presentations will be arranged according to themes as much as possible.
Conference language is English. Conference organizers can provide an LCD projector; other equipment is the responsibility of the presenter.
