DC-2022: Metadata Innovation: Inclusivity, Intelligence, and
Interoperability
Call for Participation

Venue: University of Washington, Seattle, USA
Mode: Virtual and (pandemic permitting) in-person
In-Person date: October 3rd - October 5th

Deadline extended to May 9, 2022

The Dublin Core™ community has been a fertile ground for researchers,
educators, practitioners and developers to exchange and share ideas,
knowledge, experience, and innovative projects on metadata for more than
two decades. This year the DC-2022 conference expands its themes to the
whole spectrum of innovation in metadata design, implementation & best
practices, with a special focus on challenges and opportunities in the
data-intensive and diverse world.

Two years into the pandemic, the changes and rising needs for information
justice and equity prompted the metadata community to reexamine how the
metadata community address the biases and prejudice existed in the metadata
tools and practices. Creating just, equitable representation of data and
information resources and entities plays a significant role in promoting
diversity and inclusion. These social and cultural changes coupled with the
data-intensive, data-dependent, and data-driven environment demand metadata
to be innovative, intelligent, interoperable, sharable, and reusable.
Metadata as one of the underpinning dimensions for the digital data era has
never been more critical than today. Fashionable fields such as linked
(open) data, research data, artificial intelligence, machine learning,
digital humanities and open science are dependent upon quality metadata to
operate and perform effectively. Besides supporting information and data
management, discovery, sharing, conservation, and reuse, metadata has
become an invaluable source for analytics and knowledge discovery and make
information more accessible for diverse communities. The parallel growth of
data and metadata offers new challenges and opportunities for the metadata
community to rethink and reposition metadata research and practice in order
to stay ahead of the next wave of developments in data-driven environments
and diverse cultures.

Since the late 1990s, the Dublin Core™ conference has been a major venue
for discussions on where innovation opportunities for metadata might lie
and where existing good practices may be consolidated. The conferences have
drawn participants not only from universities, research institutions and
LAMs (libraries, archives, and museums), but also from corporations and
government agencies. Continuing the legacy of the Dublin Core™ conferences
from the last two decades, the DC-2022 conference seeks inspirational
submissions on developments of innovative tools, practices, and solutions,
while addressing theoretical, analytical, and empirical aspects of metadata.

Submissions in form of papers, reports, posters, panels, tutorials,
workshops and demonstrations are welcome in the following broad categories
of metadata design, deployment and best practices:

Metadata principles, guidelines, and best practices
Curation, governance, and sustainability
Conceptual models and frameworks
Entity management
Lessons from implementation
Interoperability and harmonization
Metadata quality and validation
Metadata and diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA)
Metadata for research data
Metadata analytics, AI, and knowledge graph
Metadata in digital humanities.
