CFP: Journal of Business & Finance Librarianship

The Journal of Business & Finance Librarianship is seeking original manuscripts (e.g. articles, studies, etc.) and reviews (of databases, websites, books and/or data sets) for publication in future issues. JBFL also wants to add to our group of esteemed peer reviewers.

Here are a few options:

• Already working on a study or other research related to business and finance librarianship? Write it up and submit your paper: https://tandfonline.com/toc/wbfl20/current (click on “Submit an article). Even if you’re not currently working on a specific research project, we can suggest some potential topics.
• You can’t have blind peer review without a team of excellent peer reviewers. Become a peer reviewer and read and comment upon original articles and have a voice in what ultimately gets published in your field. Your hard work may ultimately result in a seat on the JBFL Editorial Board!
• Want to be an author but not quite ready to dive into a full study or original manuscript? Become a writer of reviews of business research databases or books or data sets or web sites. (Products recently reviewed include Forrester, Mergent Intellect and ProQuest’s Business Premium Collection).

If you are interested in any or all of these options please reach out to JBFL Editor-in-Chief Celia Ross at caross@umich.edu to brainstorm on opportunities for getting involved in this corner of the scholarly communications world.

The Journal of Business & Finance Librarianship is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal covering topics related to business information and business researchers.

Guidelines for Posters

*Materials*

Each poster session author will be provided with one side of a free-standing 4-foot by 8-foot board. Plan to mount your materials at least 30 minutes prior to the opening of the session and remove them within one-half hour after the session closes. All illustrations, charts, etc., to be posted should be prepared in advance as materials for these purposes will not be available at the conference facilities. You will need to bring your own supply of push pins. It is also recommended that you bring extra copies of your illustrations or a sign-up sheet for people to request copies of your information.

*Layout*

Each poster must have a heading in very large type, 84 pt or greater. Your name and affiliation should also be noted in large type, around 72 pt. Headings and sub-headings should be at least 36 pt. You need not use all capitals for titles and headings, for this can sometimes make them difficult to read. Other lettering, including text and lettering on illustrations or charts, should be between 18 and 24 pt, and should have double or 1.5 spacing between lines. Use a simple font such as Times, Arial or Helvetica throughout your presentation. To make something stand out, use a larger font size, bold or underline. You can also frame a section of text by putting a box around it. All material should be readable from a distance of three feet or more.

*Presentation*

Material should be displayed in logical sequence and each sheet should be numbered. Use graphs, charts, tables, figures, pictures or lists rather than text to get your points across. Make sure your presentation flows in a logical sequence, and include an introduction, body and conclusion. Arrange your presentation ahead of time to make sure it fits within the space provided.

*Visual Impact*

The effectiveness of a poster presentation can be enhanced by using techniques such as mounting the sheets on colored (though not fluorescent) paper to improve the graphic impact. Please note that simplicity, ease of  reading, etc., are more important than artistic flair. Illustrations should not be mounted on heavy stock as this could make them difficult to mount on poster boards. Consider the visual impact your presentation needs to make in order to attract readers in a room full of posters.

CFP: IFLA WLIC Preconference Satellite Meeting - Data intelligence in libraries: the actual and artificial perspectives - Frankfurt, Germany - August 22-23, 2019

IFLA WLIC Preconference Satellite Meeting
Deutsche Nationalbibliothek – German National Library, Frankfurt, Germany
22 & 23 August 2019
https://2019.ifla.org/cfp-calls/big-data-sig

Data intelligence in libraries: the actual and artificial perspectives

There is a growing urgency for library professionals to explore the underlying considerations for administering scholarly, scientific and business data in libraries. From an actual or real-world perspective, library managers have a requirement for timely and insightful management information derived from library data generated by the use of online resources and library services. Library professionals need to continuously develop their data skills to enable themselves to be smarter in the use, wrangling, visualization and application of data.

Likewise, from an artificial perspective, machine agents are dependent on good quality data to be capable to infer and learn from it through a process of knowledge engineering. Libraries should leverage opportunities to implement interventions that could facilitate optimal access to reputable scientific data, thereby fostering the knowledge process by making data findable and available to information agents.

We are seeking proposals for papers on topics including but not limited to the following:

• Collection and analysis of library operations data (facilities usage, IoT devices, building sensors)
• Programs which provide access to big data in science projects or government databases
• Projects that mine the long tail of scholarly data
• Collections as data projects, such as curated heritage and special collections
• Data literacy programs and/or data science training initiatives
• The professional issues around data science and data librarianship
• Infrastructure, frameworks, and applications on which data gathering, cleaning, analysis and visualization can be done

We invite you to submit abstracts in MS-Word or PDF format by 15 April 2019 to Cory Lampert cory.lampert@unlv.edu and Wouter Klapwijk wklap@sun.ac.za. All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee and submitters will be notified by 3 May 2019. Full papers of accepted abstracts must be submitted no later than July 15, 2019.

Call for Chapters: Open Pedagogy: Varied Definitions, Multiple Approaches

We’re excited to invite chapter proposal submissions for a forthcoming openly published book, tentatively titled Open Pedagogy: Varied Definitions, Multiple Approaches. The book, which will examine library/faculty collaborative explorations into open pedagogical practices, will be published through the Rebus Community, a Montreal-based non-profit that is developing an open model for publishing.

Focus of the Book:

The term “open” has been heavily used in the past decade or more and can come with multiple interpretations: open access, open source, open textbook, open pedagogy … In general, “open” within these contexts implies unlimited, free, public access with the ability to manipulate and transform the educational content.

Within the educational realm, we see even greater nuances of “open” in terms of how the access to and adapted creation work together. Our book aims to shed light on four different definitions and how they are applied in a variety of learning experiences.

• Open as in MOOCs - encouraging self-driven learning through massive open online courses
• Open textbooks/resources as core text replacements - saving students money on textbooks while cultivating the benefits of student ownership, accountability, and rigorous learning (via open textbook modification or developing content through research methodologies)
• Student-developed open projects - the product of student learning becomes open and usable by a wide audience
• Open pedagogical design - course design without a clear end product or strict process of learning; learning outcomes are defined, but how the instructor and students arrive at those outcomes is flexible

We seek chapters focused on library/teaching faculty collaborations that explore the intersecting roles and desired outcomes that each partner contributes toward student learning in an open environment.

Interested? To read more, see the full version of our Call for Proposals and the rubric we plan to use for evaluation and selection purposes.

Proposals are due by April 28, 2019, 11:59 PM EST and can be submitted to https://form.jotform.com/90576024994163

• Contributors will be notified of their status (acceptance or rejection): June 3, 2019
• Deadline to submit the first draft of accepted chapters: July 21, 2019, 11:59 PM EST
• Estimated length of chapter: 2,500–4000 words
• Projected publication date: June 2020

CFP: Digitial Frontiers 2019 Conference (Austin, Texas - September 2019) #DigitalHumanities

Digital Frontiers welcomes submissions for the 2019 conference, Tear Down The Walls, hosted by UT Austin in Austin, TX on September 26-28, 2019. The conference features Keynote Addresses from Dorothy Kim (Brandeis University) and Alex Gil (Columbia University).

Digital Frontiers is a conference and community that brings together the makers and users of digital resources for the humanities. Established in 2012 to respond to the need for an affordable, high-quality conference that addresses the emerging field of digital humanities from a variety of perspectives, Digital Frontiers is a truly interdisciplinary experience.

Digital Humanities scholars deal with numerous barriers and borders as they interrogate the world around them through a digital lens. We invite participants to think critically about the composition of these walls, of their implicit and explicit functions, and the colonial practices by which many were and are still being created. Some of these barriers are created by a community for self-preservation, while others are built to perpetuate structural inequalities and discriminatory practices. Not all walls are physical. As a community, Digital Frontiers has interrogated the frontier and the border in digital scholarship as scenes of both conflict and creativity. In 2019, we invite scholars, students, librarians, archivists, gallery and museum professionals, and community practitioners to interrogate these boundaries and amplify the weaknesses we can use to tear down those walls that serve only those gatekeepers in power. We also encourage reflection on the aftermath: how do we communicate, produce, and exchange knowledge when these walls no longer block the way.

We invite deeper considerations of dismantling barriers in digital scholarship broadly conceived, presented in any of the following formats, with proposals consisting of a 300-500 word abstract:

• Preconstituted Panels Curate your own panel for a 60-minute session.
• Individual Scholarly Papers or Presentations Share your work in a 15-minute presentation. (Note: early stage research, project updates, and single-institution “case studies” should be submitted as Posters or an alternative format).
• Posters Share your early stage research, project updates, manifestos, or single-institution “case studies” in a 36” h x 48” w academic poster.
• Exhibitions, Installations, Performances, and Alternative Formats
• Defined broadly to include: art installations, dance, video demonstrations, live game exhibitions, or other embodied and participatory forms of knowledge sharing.
• Please include your technical, spatial, and time requirements in your proposal.

Proposals will be double reviewed in an open process that emphasizes conversation and community mentoring. All proposals will receive detailed feedback, with final decisions made by the Program Committee.

Key Dates & Deadlines

• CFP Opens: January 15, 2019
• CFP Deadline: April 14, 2019
• Notifications: June 1, 2019

CFP: NFAIS Artificial Intelligence Conference (May 2019 - Alexandria, Virginia)

NFAIS Announces Call for Presenters: Artificial Intelligence Conference

Interested in presenting at this event? Our call for presentations is open until April 1, 2019 at http://www.nfais.org/call-for-presenters

While a great deal of intelligent technology has already been developed and deployed in the scholarly publishing industry, the key to its success will be in synthesizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology with massive data, tools, varying business models and the underpinning frameworks that are beginning to change the way we seek out, discover, interact with and benefit from scholarship.

For publishers, AI provides easier and faster efficiencies in workflow-from detecting plagiarism to peer review. Government agencies and private funders are relying on it to ensure not only that the research be made available, but that the researchers fulfill grant requirements in following reputable standards, preserving integrity and objectives of a trusted process. For academic search engines, AI is providing a better search experience coupled with valuable insights and connections. And for researchers and the institutions that support them, AI has been pivotal in engineering tools that-through automation-support scholars and researchers in new ways of carrying out experiments and interpreting results.

NFAIS will explore the application and implication of AI across all sectors of scholarship at our Artificial Intelligence: Finding Its Place in Research, Discovery and Scholarly Publishing conference, on May 15 - 16, 2019 in Old Town Alexandria, VA, and we invite you join the discussion as a speaker! NFAIS provides stakeholders with a forum for insightful discussion and open dialogue about potential paths forward.

NFAIS is looking for visionary, inspiring and future-focused presenters who can elevate discussions on AI, debate and provide practical ideas and solutions as we consider data strategy, changing infrastructure, and the use of innovative researcher-driven tools and services. You may be selected to present alone, with a co-presenter, or as a panel.

Benefits of Presenting with NFAIS

*         Gain visibility as a thought leader in the global information services community
*         Create a launch pad for debate and discussion
*         Influence and shape the future of information services
*         Reach a high-caliber audience of key leaders and decision makers
*         Help others succeed and ensure they avoid common pitfalls
*         Boost the profile of yourself and your organization
*         Network with colleagues and make new connections

Submission deadline is April 1, 2019
