JCDL 2022 - Bridging Worlds. In this global pandemic that put many of us into lockdown, quarantine, and separation for a long time, we will do our best to bring together communities and people again. As digital libraries are traditionally strong in connecting the digital and the physical world, we will pick up this heritage and establish a hybrid format that is as open as possible to everyone.

Conference dates: June 20-24, 2022
Topics of interest, as they relate to digital libraries, include, but are not limited to:
JCDL 2022 will implement a variable paper length policy for research papers. There is no longer a distinction between long and short papers, nor a need of condensing or enlarging medium-length submissions. The maximum paper length is 10 pages in content plus unrestricted space for references. The minimum paper length is 4 pages in content plus unrestricted space for references. Any page length in between is allowed.
Paper length should be commensurate with contribution size and authors should submit a paper whose length reflects what is needed for the content of the work. The reviewers will assess whether the contribution is appropriate for the given length. Longer papers may be given more presentation time during the conference. We hope this new streamlined process will preserve the variety of paper lengths and foster the exchange of ideas without creating an artificial distinction among them. Reviewers will be explicitly advised to judge the quality of a paper and not its length.
We additionally invite 2-page papers:
The presentation type of late breaking, preliminary work, dataset and demo submission will be decided during the reviewing process.
All submissions must be original works, not previously published or under review for publication elsewhere, in English, in PDF format, and in the current ACM two-column conference format. Suitable LaTeX, Word, and Overleaf templates are available from the ACM Website (use “sigconf” proceedings template for LaTeX and the Interim Template for Word).
All submissions will be rigorously peer-reviewed in a double-blind reviewing process. Submissions must be anonymous and all references to authors’ works have to be anonymised. Submissions are to be made via <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jcdl2022>
All accepted papers will be included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for, and present the work at the conference at sight in Cologne. In case of travelling restrictions, authors will be enabled to present the work remotely.
Selected best papers will be invited for a special issue to be published with the International Journal on Digital Libraries (IJDL), Springer.
All dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE) time zone
