** We are very keen to welcome applicants from the full range of theoretical and methodological (qualitative and quantitative) approaches in the social sciences **

The Doctoral Consortium is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world who are in the early phases of their dissertation work on topics related to digital libraries, broadly defined.

The goal of the Doctoral Consortium is to help students with their thesis and research plans by providing feedback and general advice in a constructive atmosphere. Students will present and discuss their research in the context of a well-known and established international conference, in a supportive atmosphere with other doctoral students and an international panel of established researchers. The workshop will take place on a single full day (June 2, 2019).

Relevant topics include (but are not limited to):
• Collaborative and participatory information environments
• Crowdsourcing and human computation
• Cyberinfrastructure architectures, applications, and deployments
• Distributed information systems
• Document genres
• Extracting semantics, entities, and patterns from large collections
• Information and knowledge systems
• Information visualization
• Infrastructure and service design
• Knowledge discovery
• Linked data and its applications
• Performance evaluation
• Personal digital information management
• Scientific data management
• Social media, architecture, and applications
• Social networks, virtual organizations and networked information
• User behavior and modeling
• User communities and user research

There is no registration fee for the doctoral consortium workshop. Workshop participants will receive complimentary conference registration. There may also be the opportunity to secure funding to cover a portion of costs of attending JCDL.

Instructions for applying can be found here:https://2019.jcdl.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/doctoral_consortium_instructions.pdf

For further details please contact the Doctoral Consortium co-chairs:

Peter Darch, School of Information Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Edie Rasmussen, School of Library, Archival and Information Studies, University of British Columbia
Jacques Tocatlian, former director of UNESCO's General information program, passed away peacefully early this morning. He has played a critical role in the development of UNISIST and later GIP. Among his many accomplishments his contribution to the revival of the Library of Alexandria is perhaps one he was most proud about.
Rutgers iSchool is looking for some amazing faculty members at all ranks. Areas of interest include social computing, information studies, librarianship, health informatics, data science, computational social science, and human-computer interaction.

Besides amazing colleagues, and a wonderfully diverse set of students, you will also get a chance to work and live in one of the most exciting metropolitan areas
in the world (Greater New York area).
