MW2011 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: Deadline September 30, 2010
Museums and the Web 2011
the international conference for culture and heritage online
April 6-9, 2011
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
http://www.archimuse.com/mw2011/
Museums and the Web explores the social, cultural, design,
technological, economic, and organizational issues of culture, science
and heritage online. Taking an international perspective, MW reviews
and analyzes the impacts of networked cultural, natural and scientific
heritage. Our community has been meeting since 1997, imagining,
tracking, analyzing, and influencing the role museums play on the Web
- wherever the network may take us.
* CALL FOR PARTICIPATION *
The MW program is built from the ground up. Proposals are invited from
professionals and researchers in all areas actively exploring the
creation, online presentation and use of cultural, scientific and
heritage content, and its re-use and evaluation. There are no pre-
defined themes -- just a strong interest in the best work out there!
The bibliography of past MW papers (all online since 1997) can be
searched at http://conference.archimuse.com/biblio/
All full texts are freely available online.
* PROPOSAL FORM *
Online proposal submission is required. Use the form linked from http://conference.archimuse.com/mw2011/call.html

Committee. Note that proposals for full sessions are rarely accepted.
Proposals for sessions should be submitted as individual papers with a
covering note. The committee may choose to accept some papers and not
others.
