Linked Pasts 9 (virtual): Call for Activities

[Leif Isaksen]

Dear Antiquistas

See below for this year's Call for Activities for Linked Pasts. Please do forward on to anyone you think might be interested (especially ECRs and PGRs who might benefit from a relatively straightforward way to coordinate some community discussion around a topic of mutual interest).

Hope to see some of you there!

All the best

Leif

==================================

Linked Pasts 9, Dec 5–14, 2023 (remote)

Call for activities:

The annual Linked Pasts symposium—which has previously been held at KCL, Madrid, Stanford, Mainz, Bordeaux, University of London and British Library, Ghent, and York—brings together scholars, heritage professionals and other practitioners with an interest in Linked Open Data as applied to the study of the past. Panels and working groups at Linked Pasts are more goal-oriented than a conventional academic conference, and activities and agendas are often proposed, developed and revised by all participants at the event itself. Activities may be new or continuations of work from previous symposia or other venues.

The Linked Pasts Symposium is a formal partner of the Pelagios Network.

The ninth Linked Pasts symposium (LP9) will be a fully virtual and asynchronous affair, better to engage with international participants and different time zones, and reduce the need for financially and environmentally expensive travel.

If you would like to organise a collaborative activity (workshop, training, discussion, editing or documentation sprint, annual report on special interest group, etc.) please fill in the form at <https://forms.gle/9XDBodiLEePq6BMz9> by November 5, 2023.
