> Information, 5-9 September 2013, Prague, Czech Republic
>
> Submission deadline: June 30, 2013

>  *AIM AND SCOPE***
>
> The description and dissemination of the archival collections has changed
> over the last twenty years, mostly due to the standardization of the
> archival description. 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.
