Upcoming Conferences

ALLC/ACH Joint International Conference

21-25 July 2000, University of Glasgow, Scotland.
This is one of the major annual conferences in humanities computing, and brings together research in a wide variety of areas including text analysis, image processing, new media, digital editions, markup and language corpora, and teaching with online resources.

The Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing (ALLC) was founded in 1973 with the purpose of supporting the application of computing in the study of language and literature.

The Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH) is the major international professional association for people working in computer-aided research in humanities disciplines.

As the range of available and relevant computing techniques and methodologies has increased, the interests of the Associations' members have broadened to encompass not only text analysis, markup and language corpora, but also image processing, digital editions, management and preservation of digital resources, and humanities computing as a discipline.

Digital Resources in the Humanities

10-13 September 2000, University of Sheffield, England.
The annual Digital Resources in the Humanities conference is the major forum for all those involved in, and affected by, the digitization of our cultural heritage: the scholar creating or using an electronic resource to further research; the teacher gathering Web resources into an online learning environment; the publisher or broadcaster integrating print or analogue with the digital to reach new audiences; the librarian, curator or archivist wishing to improve both access to and conservation of the digital information that characterizes contemporary culture and scholarship; the computer or information scientist seeking to apply new developments to the creation, exploitation and management of humanities resources.

The academic program of the conference will comprise academic papers, panel discussions, and poster presentations. A number of associated workshops are also planned together with an exhibition of products and services.
