Digital humanities have become a solid part of the research landscapes in the Baltic countries. Certainly, over the past decades, this transformation has been evident through the vibrant and enthusiastic DH communities, the emergence of new research groups and centers, and the increasing presence of digital humanities courses and programs in higher education. This marks the right time for the digital humanities communities of the three Baltic States to come together, to look at how and in what directions DH has developed in our countries, to reflect on what is relevant today and to project what lies ahead in the near future.
The Baltic DH Forum will take place for two days. The initial day will comprise three sessions featuring invited speakers from the Baltic DH research communities, Ministries, and prominent European digital humanities infrastructures, including CLARIN ERIC and DARIAH-EU. The second day is designed as a networking platform providing an opportunity to present DH projects, showcase developed digital resources and tools, and introduce educational initiatives. Additionally, the afternoon of the second day will host a series of workshops covering successful practices in collaborative projects, fundraising opportunities, and other relevant topics.
Participation in the forum with presentation is free of charge with coffee breaks, lunches, and a dinner provided.
To apply for participation in the Baltic DH Forum “Demonstration and Networking Session” (2nd Day), you are invited to submit an abstract of your presentation (200–250 words) in one of the following categories:
Submissions are encouraged in diverse areas within digital humanities, including, but not limited to:
Submit your proposals here by January 25, 2024.
Applications will be peer-reviewed by the programme committee, with the main criterion being relevance to the field of digital humanities.
During the “Demonstration and Networking Session” each presenter is expected to give a brief pitch talk (approximately 5–7 minutes) to the plenary audience, followed by discussions at the poster hall.
After the Baltic DH Forum, participants will be offered an opportunity to prepare a peer-reviewed publication for a special issue of The Baltic Journal of Modern Computing, Scopus-indexed.

The DHNB aims to support research, education, and the dissemination of digital humanities in the Nordic and Baltic countries. For over seven years, the DHNB conferences have brought together academics, researchers, students, librarians, archivists, curators and museum professionals interested in creating and using digitised and born-digital collections as research data in the humanities, social sciences and arts. The DHNB has matured both as an organisation and as a community, something which is evident in the extensive compilation of outputs (https://dhnb.eu/publications/). Our annual gatherings have consistently served as a forum to showcase digital research, methodologies, technology, pedagogy and practice at the intersection that exists between academic disciplines and cultural heritage institutions. With its present level of maturity, the DHNB is now offering an opportunity to reflect on the development of these approaches and share insights that have been gained along the way.
One unique aspect of the DHNB community is the active involvement of professionals from libraries, archives, and museums alongside digital humanities researchers. In the DHNB 2024 call for papers, we would particularly like to place emphasis on sharing lessons learned from collaborative initiatives between academic and cultural heritage communities, something that is exemplified by the work of our conference host, the Icelandic Centre for Digital Humanities and Arts.
Topics of interest for the theme of DHNB2024 include, but are not limited to, the following:
CROSS-INSTITUTIONAL AND INTERDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATIONS
EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY
THE LIFE CYCLE OF DIGITAL HUMANITIES AND ARTS PROJECTS
The DHNB encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including the humanities, arts, the social sciences, and related fields. Professionals working in various sectors, such as cultural heritage, information and communications technology, and research software engineering, are encouraged to contribute and share their perspectives on working in an institutional setting within the digital humanities framework. The Program Committee welcomes and encourages submissions from early career researchers, new cultural heritage professionals and individuals who will be attending or presenting for the first time.

As an interdisciplinary conference between traditions, the conference welcomes both abstract as well as full-text submissions in the following three categories:
Long papers | 20-minute presentations with a 10-minute Q&A
Must be submitted as either:
Short papers | 10-minute presentations with a 5-minute Q&A
Posters and demos with accompanying a 1-minute lightning talk
Between the proposal categories, the following conceptual divisions apply: for long papers, the work is expected to be substantial and robust, while short papers can also report on preliminary or tentative results, or on work that is still in progress. Poster papers can either be small self-contained works, or also general project descriptions. The programme committee also reserves the right to accept submissions in a category different from the one submitted in, so e.g. a long paper can be accepted to be presented as a short paper or as a poster in the poster session.
All full-text submissions must be formatted according to the DHNB PUB template, as they will be published in a citable conference proceedings collection (https://journals.uio.no/dhnbpub/index). The abstracts, on the other hand, will be gathered into a book of abstracts. After the conference, a separate call for post-proceedings will be issued, with its own deadlines for submissions, reviews and revisions. Additional information and instructions can be found on the DHNB website: https://dhnb.eu/publications/.
Apart from the individual paper submissions, the conference also accepts proposals for:
60 to 90-minute panels
Half-day or full-day conference-themed workshops
Workshops can take many forms, from community hacking sessions to thematically focused mini-conferences attached to the main one, whose presentations are either pre-selected, or sourced through separate calls for proposals solicited by the workshop coordinators.
Half-day or full-day tutorials
All proposals should be submitted in English via the ConfTool conference management system. In addition to following the submission-specific requirements outlined above, proposals should clearly state how they contribute to the advancement of topics related to the conference themes, how they relate to previous work (if applicable), and the potential impact they may have on the advancement of the field. All proposals should be accompanied by three to five keywords.
Within the appropriate fields (author details and affiliations), submissions should include: name(s), contact details and the organisational affiliation of the author(s) along with the name(s) of presenters. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper. Participants can only be the first author (= presenter) of one paper at the conference and the second author/contributor of one additional paper (long paper, panel, or show-and-tell presentation).
Anyone interested in submitting a proposal for the ad-hoc program, such as drop-in talks, lean coffee, or show-and-tell, can contact us at DHNB2024@hi.is.
Submitted proposals will undergo a single-blind peer-review process whereby the reviewers know the names/affiliations of the abstract authors and co-authors. Authors may be asked to make revisions before publication. The program committee will review all submissions and send out notifications of acceptance/rejection by 15 February.
Authors will be asked to review their submissions before the publication.
For questions, please send an email to DHNB2024@hi.is

We invite submissions for the Cultural Data Analytics Conference 2023 / CUDAN 2023, organized by the ERA Chair project for Cultural Data Analytics at Tallinn University, generously funded by the European Commission. Inspired by initial large gatherings of the cultural analytics community, including UCLA/IPAM 2016, and multidisciplinary conferences such as NetSci, IC2S2, or CCS, we aim to bring together researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders using methods of cultural data analytics to understand cultures and cultural production. This particularly includes multidisciplinary combinations of quantification, qualitative inquiry, computational analysis, and visualization to make sense of large cultural datasets, including visual, audiovisual, linguistic, and other genres of socio-cultural materials. The conference is scheduled to happen in Tallinn, Estonia from December 13 to 16, 2023, including a number of leading invited practitioners, peer-reviewed talks, and poster contributions from the community.
Abstracts due: July 24, 2023 (23:59 CET)
Notification of acceptance: September 14, 2023
Conference: December 13-16, 2023

Cultures and cultural production are multifaceted phenomena, which, like other complex systems, cannot be fully understood from the perspective of a single specific discipline. This is why the core mission of cultural data analytics is to join forces and make headway across disciplines and domains of expertise. Feeding into this mission, we welcome both multidisciplinary submissions, and contributions from specific disciplines, which aim to benefit from discussion in a multidisciplinary forum.
We encourage discussion towards a deeper understanding of cultures and cultural production including aspects, methods, and intersections of the following fields:
– cultural analytics, culturomics, and socio-cultural data science;
– digital humanities and computational humanities;
– cultural evolution, including experimental and observational approaches;
– cultural complexity science, network science, computational social science, and social physics;
– computational linguistics, quantitative aesthetics, critical computer vision, and machine learning;
– art history, cultural history, cultural semiotics, film studies, musicology, and urbanism;
– artistic research, algorithmic curation, and AI art (including aspects of cultural data analysis);
– creative industries research, media economics, and policy studies;
– data journalism, data science, and information visualization.
Contributions ideally address at least one of the following subject domains (in line with state-of-the-art conceptual reference models for cultural data):
– material aspects, including artworks, architecture, texts, images, sound, film, digital media, databases, and other forms of tangible cultural heritage;
– conceptual aspects, including cultural practices, rituals, theories, policies, data models, narratives, imagined communities, and other forms of intangible cultural heritage;
– social aspects, including human behaviour, human mobility, social networks, and social media;
– temporal aspects, from slow historical processes to turbulence in today’s economy of attention;
– spatial aspects of historical topography, cultural geography, and urban dynamics;
– event aspects, which combine the above aspects in cultural co-production, event series, tourism, etc.;
– network aspects of socio-cultural interaction, including the inherent ecology of complex networks as documented in the structure and dynamics of large cultural knowledge graphs or blockchains associated with the crypto-art-market, for example.
The CUDAN 2023 main conference programme (December 14-16, 2023) will include six keynotes covering the spectrum of relevant disciplines, a lightning talk session in the plenary, parallel sessions, and a poster section. The latter will run throughout the whole conference in the coffee and lunch area that is collocated with the plenum. The conference will close with a best poster and best paper award ceremony.
The pre-conference day (December 13, 2023) will feature introductory workshops by CUDAN senior fellows, covering aspects of cultural data analysis and visualization using Python, R, Tableau, and the Collection Space Navigator.
Before and after the main conference, we will offer sightseeing tours, including the medieval Tallinn old town and Christmas market (among many reasons to visit Estonia).
We are further planning a meet the publisher’s session and other opportunities for relevant stakeholders, including exhibition booths.
If you or your institution/company is interested in participation, please contact us via email to cudan@tlu.ee, ideally before September 14, 2023.
As we are fully funded through the European Commission, there will be no conference fee for accepted participants, with the exception of the conference dinner. Accepted participants are required to register and confirm their attendance. Information regarding accommodation (including reduced rate hotels) and a form to order VISA support letters will be announced on the conference website (https://cudan.tlu.ee/conference/).

The workshop builds upon the first CLARIN and Libraries workshop held in the Hague in May 2022 (see here).
This year's workshop will investigate further areas of collaboration between CLARIN-related initiatives and libraries with a special emphasis on building (large) language models in and in cooperation with libraries. The workshop will bring together for the second time a group of people associated with both CLARIN (or other research infrastructures) and libraries. Whereas the first CLARIN and Libraries workshop was particularly concerned with digital content delivery for researchers, the main theme of the second workshop will be large language models and library collections, e.g. technical challenges in building such models and legal implications of model training and use.
The host, the National Library of Norway (NLN), has since 2005 digitised its entire text collections, amounting at present to a large corpus of 160 billion words for Norwegian and has built large language models for text (BERT, GPT-2, T5) and speech (wav2vec, Whisper) on these collections. There will be keynotes from the National Libraries of Norway and Germany on the technical aspects of building such models in a library setting, as well as a keynote on the legal aspects of building large language models from the Swedish National Library.
Participation in the workshop is by invitation. If you are interested in attending, please contact your national coordinator or clarin@clarin.eu. The venue (National Library of Norway, Henrik Ibsens gate 110, Oslo) is located very close to the train station Nationaltheatret. Descriptions for getting to the venue can be found here.

Join our workshop tailored to students and academics to learn how to use open data from data.europa.eu for your research.
On Thursday 19 October from 10.00 to 12.00 CET, data.europa.eu will host its first workshop series on ‘How to use open data for your research’. This series, designed for students and academics is also open to anyone interested. The goal is to showcase the relevance and importance of open data for academic purposes. During this workshop, you will learn how to use open data from our portal for research and get examples from universities that have already embraced open data in their daily operations.
The workshop will start with an introduction by the Publications Office of the EU on open data and data.europa.eu. Following that, a hands-on presentation will be given through the portal, demonstrating how to efficiently search for specific datasets. Furthermore, three esteemed universities - KU Leuven, University of Amsterdam, and University of Naples L'Orientale - will present practical examples of how open data can be used to conduct Research.
These universities offer three distinct perspectives on using open data in research. The KU Leuven Research Repository provides access to open research data through their database, providing valuable resources to students. The University of Amsterdam offers a practical example of how linked open data can drive research and the UniOR NLP Research Group of the University of Naples L'Orientale will showcase a real-life example of exploiting open data for applications.
Following the informative university presentations, a short practical assignment will be given to help put the learnings into practice. To wrap up the practical assignment, you will have the opportunity to share your insights and ask your questions during the Q&A session.
Do you want to improve your digital skills and learn about the relevance of open data for academic purposes with real-life examples? Click here to register for the workshop.
