Call for Papers:
*The Future of the Arts & Humanities Computing Centre*
Computing centres serving the Arts and Humanities have seen some notable
changes in recent years, and the future promises a continued evolution --
one concurrent with a number of influential forces, among them the changing
perceptions of what constitutes 'computing' in Arts and Humanities
disciplines.
Proposals for papers that treat issues central to the future of the Arts &
Humanities Computing Centre are invited for a panel presentation and
discussion at the meeting of the Consortium for Computers in the Humanities
/ Consortium pour ordinateurs en sciences humaines at the Canadian Congress
of Learned Societies, Edmonton, Alberta (May, 2000).
Accompanying this panel will be presentations by
Alan Burk, U of New Brunswick
Electronic Text Centre
<http://www.lib.unb.ca/Texts/>
Terry Butler, U of Alberta
Technologies for Learning Centre
<http://www.humanities.ualberta.ca/TLC/>
Peter Liddell, U of Victoria
Language Centre
<http://web.uvic.ca/langcen/>
Geoffrey Rockwell, McMaster U
Humanities Computing Centre
<http://www.humanities.mcmaster.ca/~hcc/>
Each will speak about their centre, its history and role, and its projected
future.
Detailed paper proposals on the future of the Arts & Humanities Computing
Centre should be submitted for consideration, by December 15, to
R.G. Siemens
