Call for Panel Proposals - International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries 2011Call for Panel Proposals - International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries 2011

[Johan Oomen]

Good evening,

TPDL 2011 (International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital
Libraries) is planning to host a small number of highly focused panel
discussions. Panels should be lively, controversial, and provoke
discussion on a specific topic of interest to the community. Panel
sessions should not consist of paper presentations, but should have
plenty of discussion engaging the audience. A two-page abstract of the
tutorial will be included in the proceedings. The proceedings will be
published as a volume of Springer's Lecture Notes on Computer Science
(LNCS) series <http://www.springer.com/lncs> .

• The issues to be discussed, including a short listing of pro
and con arguments
• Short biographies of the moderator and prospective panelists
• Any special requirements
Panel proposals in PDF or plain ASCII format must be sent via email by
