############ Call for Full Research and Practitioners Papers ############

Over the years TPDL was established as an important international forum
focused on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and
social issues. TPDL encompasses the many meanings of the term “digital
libraries” embracing the whole spectrum of the LAM community; operational
information systems with all manner of digital content; new means of
selecting, collecting, organizing, and distributing digital content; and
theoretical models of information media, including document genres and
electronic publishing. Digital libraries may be viewed as a new form of
information institution or as an extension of the services libraries
currently provide.

Representatives from academia, cultural heritage institutions, government,
industry, research communities, research infrastructures, and others are
invited to participate in this annual conference. The conference draws from
a broad and multidisciplinary array of research areas including computer
science, information science, librarianship, archival science and practice,
museum studies and practice, technology, social sciences, cultural
heritage, digital humanities, and scientific communities.

TPDL historically approached “digital libraries” embracing the field at
large also comprehending three key areas of interest that can be
synthesized as scholarly communication (e.g. research data, research
software, digital experiments, digital libraries),
e-science/computationally-intense research (e.g. scientific workflows,
Virtual Research Environments, reproducibility) and library, archive,
museum and information science (e.g. governance, policies, open access,
open science). As digital cultural heritage ties into digital humanities,
TPDL aims to include this closely connected field as well.

TPDL 2022 is hosted by the University of Padua and will take place in
Padua, Italy from 20 to 23 September 2022. We aim at going back to a full
in-presence event. This choice does not exclude the possibility to follow
talks online, but authors of accepted papers are strongly encouraged to
come and present in person. We aim at encouraging discussion both formal
after a paper presentation and informal during social events and coffee
breaks.
