*********Apologies for cross posting**********
This message contains a call for participation in DRH 2000 and a call for
proposals to host DRH 2001 and DRH 2002.
DRH 2000 : Digital Resources for the Humanities
The DRH conferences have established themselves firmly in the UK and
international calendar as a forum that brings together scholars,
librarians, archivists, curators, information scientists and computing
professionals in a unique and positive way, to share ideas and information
about the creation, exploitation, management and preservation of digital
resources in the arts and humanities.
The DRH 2000 conference will take place at the University of Sheffield,
10-13 September 2000. Proposals for academic papers, themed panel
sessions, posters and workshops are invited.
The deadline for submission is 6 March 2000.
Full details about the conference and the submission of proposals may be
found at:
http://www.shef.ac.uk/~drh2000/
Please address any queries to drh2000@sheffield.ac.uk
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR HOSTS : DRH 2001 and DRH 2002
The DRH Standing Committee warmly invites proposals to host the DRH
conferences in 2001 and 2002. Further information about DRH together with
the conference Protocol, which includes guidelines for prospective hosts,
is available via the DRH Web site at http://www.drh.org.uk/.
Proposals to host DRH should be submitted by 8 April 2000 to the Chair of
the Standing Committee, Marilyn Deegan
(marilyn.deegan@queen-elizabeth-house.oxford.ac.uk), giving as much detail
as possible to help the Committee in its selection process. Previous
hosts of DRH have found running the conference very rewarding and have
also found that it can be an opportunity to alert their wider institution
to research activities in this area.

Museums and the Web 2000
April 16-19, 2000
Minneaoplis, Minnesota, USA
program now online at
http://www.archimuse.com/mw2000
Thousands of cultural heritage institutions are now on the web,
offering programs and sharing information. But museums, libraries,
archives, academics and educators have much to learn about what makes
web sites successful. And there is lots to be gained from a dialog
among users and creators of cultural information online. To
facilitate this exchange of information, Archives & Museum
Informatics organizes an annual international conference devoted
exclusively to Museums and the Web.
MW2000 offers an international perspective; speakers and delegates
from over 20 countries were represented last year in New Orleans. The
full program for MW2000, including paper abstracts and speaker
biographies, is now available at (http://www.archimuse.com/mw2000/).
Before the conference begins, full papers will be on the web so that
speakers can highlight major issues and allow more time for active
discussion. About 150 papers given at three previous MW conferences
are still available online.
WORKSHOPS
Full and half day workshops precede the conference on April 16, and allow
in depth exploration of topics and themes. If you are just venturing out
onto the net or are a seasoned cybersurfer, there is a workshop for you. A
Pre-conference tour on April 15 allows a limited number of people to
get a first hand look at award-winning web development studios in
Minneapolis and St. Paul.
PROGRAM
Speakers from around the world will present papers on the entire process of
web implementation. During the 3 days of the conference, beginners
and veterans can explore themes including: design & development,
implementation, evaluation, site promotion, education, societal
issues, research, museology and curation. Sessions, papers, panels
and up-close mini-workshops explore theory and practice. The Exhibit
Hall features hot tools, techniques and services. Demonstrations of
museum web sites will let you meet and question designers and
implementers of some of the coolest museums on the web.
DEMONSTRATIONS
There's still space in the MW2000 Demonstration Hall. If you've got a
hot new feature on your site, and you'd like a chance to show it off
to your friends and colleagues, visit
http://www.archimuse.com/mw2000/demos/ and make your proposal to
demonstrate. The deadline is February 15, 2000.
BEST OF THE WEB
Once again, an international panel of judges will award the Best of
the Web, to the museum or heritage site that best uses the web to
meet its mission. Visit http://www.archimuse.com/mw2000/best/ to
nominate your favourite site for consideration. (Judges are not
eligible to win awards.)
