CFP: 10th International Conference on Digital Libraries for Musicology (In Association with ISMIR 2023), November 10, 2023, Biblioteca del Conservatorio di Milano
2ND CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTERS
DLfM welcomes contributions related to any aspect of digital libraries and musicology, including topics related to musical archiving and retrieval, cataloguing and classification, musical databases, special collections, music encodings and representations, computational musicology, or music information retrieval (MIR).
Given DLfM’s return this year as a satellite event of the ISMIR conference, we welcome papers that apply MIR technologies to “music documents” with a focus on cultural heritage preservation. Scores and music documents have been digitized by libraries and archives worldwide for preservation and access. Some of these digital libraries' resources are being converted into symbolic files representing the music content of the documents. These symbolic music files, in turn, allow for more interaction with the music—through rendering, playback, search, and computational music analysis. At this DLfM congress, we aim to stimulate discussions around the use of MIR technologies in symbolic music and their implications for cultural heritage preservation.
The organizing committee strongly encourages papers and posters that address the theme, however, we welcome all papers addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM. Specific examples of topics traditionally covered at DLfM can be found at https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk.
Proceedings of the DLfM 2023 are expected to be published in ACM ICPS as an Open Access publication as in previous years. Like last year, we are planning to be able to offer authors an open access proceedings paper without passing on the cost to authors.

SUBMISSIONS
Paper submissions
* Paper length: We invite full papers (up to 8 pages excluding references) or short papers (up to 4 pages excluding references).
* Submissions: work is submitted to DLfM via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dlfm2023).
* Format: Submissions must be in English, formatted according to the appropriate ACM template (see template below), in PDF format, and A4 size. Authors will need to follow ACM's instructions for formatting carefully. Assistance will be provided from the proceedings chair.
* Templates: Authors must use either the LaTeX template (https://portalparts.acm.org/hippo/latex_templates/acmart-primary.zip, use the 'sigconf', 'review', and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), the LaTeX + Overleaf template (https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/association-for-computing-machinery-acm-sig-proceedings-template/bmvfhcdnxfty, use the 'review' and 'anonymous' settings for initial submission), or the MS Word template (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/word_style/interim-template-style/interim-layout.docx). Historically, LaTeX versions have been easier to process into camera-ready versions. Therefore, we encourage all authors to use the LaTeX (or LaTeX + Overleaf) template if possible.
* Page limits for submitted papers apply to all text, excluding the bibliography (i.e., references can be included on pages over the specified limits).
Poster submissions
* Submission: The initial poster submission consists of an abstract which outlines both the scholarly content and broad details of the proposed layout in 500 words or fewer.
* Format: Posters will be formatted in A0 specifications. A template will be sent closer to the conference date to authors of accepted poster abstracts. All accepted posters will also be required to submit before the conference date a digital copy to be shared publicly on the conference web page.
Review and Ethics
Papers (long and short) will be double blind peer reviewed by 2-3 members of the programme committee. For accepted paper submissions, at least one author must register for the conference (as a presenter) by the conference registration deadline.
DLfM conforms to the usual conventions for publication ethics. For instance, we endeavour to provide an effective reviewing process that is fair to all submissions, with reviews from experts in the subject area. In turn, we expect authors to ensure anonymity in the original submission as far as practically possible, (for instance by not uploading the submission to public website and/or removing any currently public unpublished preprints while it is under review) and that submissions to DLfM are not under active consideration by another conference or journal.
