In partnership with the National e-Science Centre and supported by the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) we are holding our 4th International Digital Curation Conference on 1-3 December 2008 at the Hilton Edinburgh Grosvenor hotel in Edinburgh, Scotland.

You are invited to submit both long and short papers, posters and demonstrations. Proposals will be considered from individuals, organisations and institutions across all disciplines and domains that are engaged in the creation, use and management of digital data, especially those involved in the challenge of curating data in e-Science and e-Research.

Further details, together with submission templates, are available at http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/dcc-2008/

Remember: the closing date for submissions is 25 July 2008.

Accepted papers will form Day 2 of the programme and be considered for publication in our International Journal of Digital Curation (IJDC). Posters and demonstrations will be available throughout the programme.

This conference has become an established annual event providing a platform for showcasing new projects and research, sharing good practice and skills, and exploring collaborative possibilities and partnerships, so this is your chance to make your mark on the emerging field of Digital Curation.
