In recognition of some continued limitations within lab and in-person environments, we will still consider a selection of submissions that may be more focused on significant updates or additions to existing projects or projects in progress; lessons learned are also welcome, including approaches that turned out to be less than optimal (lessons of what not to do).
PEER REVIEW PROCESS AND PUBLICATION
All submitted proposals are peer-reviewed to ensure that the program provides significant, timely, and authoritative information.
- Papers presented at the conference should be complete in regard to advancing the state of knowledge in the area of cultural heritage archiving.
- All papers presented at Archiving 2023 are published Open Access in the conference proceedings, indexed with various services, filed with the US Library of Congress, and made available as downloadable PDFs through the IS&T Digital Library. Authors may also post the authoritative version of accepted papers in repositories and on websites.
- Authors are expected to adhere to the guidelines and ethics found in the IS&T Publication Policy
.
- To help support free access to manuscripts, a paid conference registration is required for each paper presented.
- The conference language is English.
How to Submit
Prospective authors are encouraged to review all the details below, as well as the IS&T Publication Policy.
Authors have the option to submit either a traditional conference paper, which will be published in the Archiving proceedings, or a Journal-first paper, which appears in the journal prior to the meeting start date, and as a reprint in the Archiving proceedings, giving the author a journal citation. Journal-first is available for the Journal of Imaging Science and Technology (JIST) or the Journal of Perceptual Imaging (JPI).
CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS PAPER
Submit Now
Prospective authors are encouraged to review all the details below, as well as the IS&T Publication Policy .
Submit: Archiving Submission Site
Submission Deadline: 3 March 2023
Submission Format: minimum 2- page (excluding bio and references) using the Archiving Submission Template (MS Word)
Review Format: Peer-review
REQUIREMENTS
- Extended abstract (minimum 2-pages of content excluding references and bio) describing original work in any technical areas related to the program topics. This may include updates to existing projects or projects in progress, as well as completed projects.
- Only abstracts submitted according to the IS&T guidelines and template will be considered.
- The abstract should clearly explain the technical content, including how the material is new or distinct from previously presented/published work on the same topic, or whether it is an update or addition to previous work. Submission may also include "lessons learned", approaches that turned out to be less than optimal that can be shared as learning experiences of what not to do. The paper may speculate on how your research ideas will impact the field in the future.
- List primary author and all co-authors with a maximum 50-word bio for each.
- Provide complete contact info (address, phone, e-mail) for the primary author.
- Agree to register for the conference and present the paper during the technical program as scheduled.
- Agree to submit a final paper by 15 May 2023, if accepted. While IS&T encourages 4-6 page proceedings papers, we also accept 1-2 page extended abstracts.
PRESENTATION FORMAT
- Authors may request a 20-minute oral presentation (includes Q&A) or 40-minute interactive poster session presentation format; both are considered of equal value, importance, and merit.
- The interactive poster option enables presenters to engage with other conference delegates and get more feedback during an interactive poster session.
DECISION NOTIFICATION
Final decisions on acceptance and presentation format (oral or interactive poster paper) are at the discretion of the Technical Program Committee. Notices of acceptance will be sent around 10 April 2023.
Upon notice of acceptance, authors are sent detailed instructions for submitting the revised 1-2 page extended abstract or a final 4-6 page paper for publication in the conference proceedings, including forms for "transfer of copyright," which includes CC-BY and government employee options.
