[Apologies for cross-postings.]

Dear colleagues,

The XX EURALEX International Congress will be held between 12-16 July 2022 in Mannheim, Germany.

The Congress will be organised by the Department of Lexical Studies ("Lexik") at the Leibniz Institute for the German Language and will take place at the Mannheim Baroque Castle, home to the University of Mannheim. With its motto “Dictionaries and Society” the conference aims at bringing together professional lexicographers, linguists, publishers, researchers, software developers and anyone interested in dictionaries and their educational, cultural, political and social impact on everyday life. One day of the conference will take place in hybrid form with some of the presentations being streamed online.

Our conference website is available at: https://euralex2022.ids-mannheim.de/.

The programme will include plenary lectures, parallel topic-related sessions, software demonstrations, presentations of new projects and young lexicographic professionals, pre-conference workshops, a book exhibition as well as social events for participants and their guests.

Call for Papers

Papers, posters, presentations of new projects and software demonstrations are invited on the topic "Lexicography and Society" as well as all lexicographically relevant topics including, but not limited to, the following fields:
