The Program Committee welcomes proposals on all topics but is particularly interested in the following: 3D and visual objects in archives, EAC-CPF and linked open data, crowd-sourcing, digital archives, and digital forensics.

The Program Committee is also planning three specific sessions for which we request proposals:

·         A student “Paper Pitch”: a session in which student presenters pitch current research in two minutes or less

Please submit your proposals by October 31, 2013 to: [email protected], including your name, contact information, session of interest or topic (not required to be one of the above), a brief description of the content, and the format of the presentation (panel discussion, lightning round, workshop, etc.).
