The use of the archival standards and metadata > schemas, such as ISAD(G), ISAAR(CPF), ISDF, EAD, EAC-CPF, METS, PREMIS > etc., has expanded to many archival services worldwide. Currently, we find > ourselves in a turning point where new versions of these tools have been > created and new technologies are being used in the archives world, such as > Linked Open Data and Semantic Web tools. Moreover, the latest years > archivists are facing the challenge of the definition of a conceptual model > for the archival description, similar to the ones defined in the > bibliographic and museum world. > > The aim of this session is a) to document the use of standards and > schemas, present their implementation, and their strong and weak points, b) > to introduce all the current efforts related to the definition of a > conceptual model for the archival description, c) to observe the use and > evaluation of archival information systems, and d) to present the use of > Social Media in Archives and the policies followed by them. The objective > is to generate a community in which archivists, information and computer > scientists working on relevant issues will meet and exchange ideas about > the main open issues. > > * > * > > *TOPICS*** > > We welcome papers that deal with, but are not limited to, the following > issues: > > - the use and evaluation of standards, metadata schemas and content > description rules implemented by the Archives in order to describe, > disseminate and preserve their material in the digital world, > - the implementation of principles, policies, guidelines and best > practices as part of the digitally manipulated archival tasks, > - the use and evaluation of archival information systems, > - the implementation of Semantic Web technologies in Archives, and > - the use of Social Media in Archives. > > * > * > > *SUBMISSION GUIDELINES* > > Authors can submit papers (3-8 pages), which have to follow the Elsevier > Procedia Social and Behavioral Sciences<http://icininfo.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=77&Itemid=88>proceedings formatting style and guidelines. > > The submitted papers will undergo the same peer review as the submissions > for IC-ININFO 2013 and accepted contributions will be published in theElsevier Procedia Social and Behavioral Sciences<http://www.journals.elsevier.com/procedia-social-and-behavioral-sciences/>. > Authors of accepted papers will be asked to register to the Conference and > present their work. > > More information on submission can be found at the IC-ININFO 2013 > publication policy<http://icininfo.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=74&Itemid=83>web page. > > * > * > > *IMPORTANT DATES* > > June 30, 2013: abstract submission > > July 15, 2013: acceptance/rejection notification > > July 31, 2013: paper submission > > September 5 – 9, 2013: IC-ININFO 2013 > > *WORKSHOP CHAIRS* > > Lina Bountouri, Technological and Educational Institute of Athens & > General State Archives of Greece, Greece > Professor Georgios Giannakopoulos, Faculty of Management and > Economics/Technological Educational Institute of Athens, Greece > > > > *PROGRAM COMMITTEE* > > The IC-ININFO 2013 International Scientific Committee<http://icininfo.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=81&Itemid=123> > >
