Dear CODE4LIB listserv members,


The 31 MARCH deadline for submitting proposals for the upcoming 54th IASA CONFERENCE & 4th ICTM FORUM is rapidly approaching!


The conference and forum will be held from 11-15 September, 2023 at Istanbul University in Istanbul, Türkiye. This year's theme is "Collaborating to preserve and safeguard audiovisual and related heritage". The event will be hybrid, combining in-person and online components; and is the first time that ICTM and IASA will join forces in a shared scholarly gathering.


For the IASA Conference presentations on 11-14 September we invite proposals on the following themes:

  *   Digital preservation in sound and audiovisual archives: new collaborative tools and strategies

  *   Metadata and curation

  *   Migration and sound and audiovisual archives

  *   Collaborative ideas to protect sound and audiovisual heritage at risk

  *   Research and dissemination

  *   Diversity, accessibility, and inclusivity in archives

  *   The past and future of archival studies and audiovisual archives in Türkiye and the Turkic World

For the ICTM - IASA Forum presentations on 15 September, we invite proposals on the shared theme:

  *   Collaborating to preserve, document, and safeguard traditional music and dance.


We welcome proposals for papers, panels and workshops to be given in person in Istanbul; as well as pre-recorded video of papers and panels for those unable to travel to Istanbul.
