Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the Call for Long / Short / Past, Present and Future papers for ACM RecSys 2026, the leading conference on recommender systems, taking place September 28 – October 2, 2026, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.
Why submit to ACM RecSys 2026?
ACM RecSys is the premier venue for research across the full spectrum of recommender systems, from technical advancements to their societal, economic, and legal impact and human-centered aspects.
Details & submission guidelines can be found here:
https://recsys.acm.org/recsys26/call/#content-tab-1-1-tab
Main Track (handled by the program chairs):
Long Papers: We welcome high-impact original papers that contribute to all aspects of recommender systems. The paper length should be commensurate with the depth of contribution, comprehensiveness of analyses, and thorough discussion of related work. Each accepted paper will be included in the conference proceedings and presented at the conference. We expect the review process to be highly selective.
Short Papers: This track is intended for contributions that can be described completely and rigorously within a smaller page limit. These papers should present focused, self-contained research stories supported by experimental validations.
Past, Present, and Future Papers: To mark the twentieth year of the RecSys Conference, this track encourages papers that consider a broad perspective on how the field has evolved and the challenges and directions that lie ahead.
Key Deadlines for Main Track Submission (11:59 pm, AoE):
Submission Site Open: March 2, 2026
