07 Mar '17

**apologies for cross-posting and feel free to distribute** The Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (SIMS) is now accepting applications for the 2017-2018 Visiting Research Fellowship program. Guided by the vision of its founders, Lawrence J. Schoenberg and Barbara Brizdle Schoenberg, SIMS aims to bring manuscript culture, modern technology, and people together to provide access to and understanding of our shared intellectual heritage. Part of the Penn Libraries, SIMS oversees an extensive collection of pre-modern manuscripts from around the world, with a special focus on the history of philosophy and science, and creates open-access digital content to support the study of its collections. SIMS also hosts the Schoenberg Database of Manuscripts<http://sdbm.library.upenn.edu/> and the annual Schoenberg Symposium on Manuscript Studies in the Digital Age<http://www.library.upenn.edu/exhibits/lectures/ljs_symposium.html>. The SIMS Visiting Research Fellowships have been established to encourage research relating to the pre-modern manuscript collections at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries, including the Schoenberg Collection. Affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania, located near other manuscript-rich research collections (the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, the Free Library of Philadelphia, the Chemical Heritage Foundation, and the Rosenbach Museum and Library, among many others), and linked to the local and international scholarly communities, SIMS offers fellows a network of resources and opportunities for collaboration. Fellows will be encouraged to interact with SIMS staff, Penn faculty, and other medieval and early modern scholars in the Philadelphia area. Fellows will also be expected to present their research at Penn Libraries either during the term of the fellowship or on a selected date following the completion of the term. Applications are due May 1, 2017. More information on eligibility and the application process is available here: https://schoenberginstitute.org/visiting-research-fellowships-2 .

UCLDH seminar: From Busa to Word Formation. Working on language resources for Latin in Milan
by Simon Mahony 04 Mar '17

04 Mar '17

A UCLDH seminar that will be of interest to many on this list. *Eleonora Litta (Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan)* *'From Busa to Word Formation. Working on language resources for Latin in Milan'** * *5:30 Wednesday 8th March** **Room 132, first floor, Foster Court, UCL, Malet Place, LONDON, WC1E 7JE * CIRCSE <http://centridiricerca.unicatt.it/circse-home?rdeLocaleAttr=en>is a pluri- and interdisciplinary research centre at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore <http://www.ucsc.it/>(Milan, Italy). The main research interests of the centre are in the field of natural language processing and information extraction from written language texts in electronic form. Originally founded by padre Roberto Busa, pioneer of computational linguistics on Latin textual material, the centre now hosts the Index Thomisticus Treebank <http://itreebank.marginalia.it/>, and other resources connected to it, and the morphological analyser and lemmatiser LEMLAT <http://www.ilc.cnr.it/lemlat/lemlat/index.html>, together with its brand-new spin-off, the Word Formation Latin (WFL) <http://wfl.marginalia.it/> lexicon. Word Formation Latin is a derivational morphology resource for Latin that has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 658332-WFL. The contents of WFL are lexical items (lemmas) related on the basis of word formation rules (WFRs). For example, lemmas amo (‘to love) and amator (‘lover’) are connected by a relationship that describes a change from a verb to a noun through the addition of a suffix that in itself bears semantic information: agent and instrumental suffix -tor. The seminar will give a brief tour of what goes on in Milan before looking in more detail at how derivational morphology information can be crucial for the enrichment of NLP resources for Latin, how the WFL lexicon came to be, what it looks like, and how scholars and enthusiasts of Latin can use it for their research. All welcome and there will be drinks and discussion after the talk. Please note that registration <https://ucldhseminarlitta.eventbrite.co.uk> is required. Speaker Eleonora Litta <http://docenti.unicatt.it/ita/eleonora_maria_litta/> has an MA in Medieval Studies from University College London, and a PhD in Classics and Latin Philology at King's College London. Her interests lie especially in historical linguistics, Classics and Germanic Philology, with special emphasis on the development of digital language resources, text analysis, corpus linguistics and computational linguistics. She worked for seven years as a lead analyst at the Department of Digital Humanities, King’s College London, before being awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research fellowship to develop a new digital resource for Latin, at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan, Italy. -- -------------------------------------------

FW: Announcing the launch of REED Online
by James Cummings 04 Mar '17

04 Mar '17

FYI ==== ANNOUNCING THE LAUNCH OF REED ONLINE The Records of Early English Drama (REED) project is delighted to announce the launch of *REED Online* (http://ereed.library.utoronto.ca), its new open-access website. The site features REED's first digital edition of dramatic records for the county of Staffordshire, encoded in TEI. Easily searched with a number of useful filters, online records appear conveniently on the same page as their translations, document descriptions, and any glosses or related endnotes. GIS mapping based on the *Patrons and Performances* map of historic county boundaries and main roads illuminates significant details further. For students and those new to records research, search tips, an introduction to the research process, and an anatomy of a sample record provide a welcoming guide. The *Staffordshire* records, edited by J.A.B. Somerset, are found in scattered collections, but they yield fascinating glimpses of early social and economic history through accounts of public performances, social occasions, royal welcomes, folk customs, and professional entertainments. A few examples highlight the richness of the collection, which includes two royal visits – by Queen Elizabeth in 1576 and, more extensively, King James I in 1615. The records of Tutbury, whose castle was a major administrative centre for the household of John of Gaunt, show us from 1380 a flourishing Minstrel Court while the accounts of Burton Manor, home to Thomas, Lord Paget reveal an Elizabethan household filled with music, playing, and revels. By contrast, Newcastle under Lyme sources record evidence of implacable hatred of players, levying large fines upon persons who allowed playing, and firing the town constable for turning a blind eye. For those interested in tracking the itineraries of professional troupes across the kingdom, new details of performance troupes visiting Stafford and Walsall as well as the private residences of Beaudesert, Blithfield, and Burton will be important. *Staffordshire* is REED's pilot digital publication, with more collections forthcoming on the same website to enable easy cross-collection searching. As REED begins planning for the production of the next collection for the county of Berkshire, the integration of *Patrons and Performances* data, and the further development of *REED Online*, it welcomes all comments and suggestions from users. Please send any feedback to REED’s project manager, Carolyn Black, at ca.black(a)utoronto.ca. REED gives special thanks to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada for a Connection grant that has made possible development of our digital publishing framework for *REED Online*. -- Dr James Cummings, Academic IT Services, University of Oxford

First Call for Papers - DeriMo2017
by Eleonora Litta Modignani Picozzi 03 Mar '17

03 Mar '17

---- First International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology (DeriMo2017) ---- FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS The First International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology (DeriMo2017) will be held in Milan (Italy) on 5 and 6 October 2017, at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (http://http://derimo2017.marginalia.it/). DeriMo2017 concludes the Word Formation Latin (WFL) project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 658332-WFL. The project is based at the Centro Interdisciplinare di Ricerche per la Computerizzazione dei Segni dell’Espressione (CIRCSE: http://centridiricerca.unicatt.it/circse-home?rdeLocaleAttr=en), at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan, Italy. Submissions are invited for presentations featuring high quality and previously unpublished research on the topics described below. Contributions should focus on results from completed as well as ongoing research, with an emphasis on novel approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives, whether descriptive, theoretical, formal or computational. Proceedings will be published, open-access, in time for the workshop. MOTIVATION AND AIMS Until very recently, in the areas of Language Resources and Natural Language Processing (NLP), derivational morphology has always been neglected if compared to inflectional morphology. Yet the recent rise of lexical resources for derivational morphology have demonstrated that enhancing textual data with derivational morphology tagging can lead to strong outcomes. First, it organises the lexicon at higher level than words, by building word formation based sets of lexical items sharing a common derivational ancestor. Secondly, derivational morphology acts like a kind of interface between morphology and semantics, since core semantic properties are shared at different extent by words built by a common word formation process. In the lively area of research aimed at building computational resources and tools for ancient languages, the WFL project fills a gap in the variety of those available for Latin, connecting lexical items on the basis of word formation rules. For a work-in-progress version of the resource, please visit http://wfl.marginalia.it. This workshop wants to be both an opportunity for the presentation of WFL to the wider community, and a place where confrontation with other scholars engaged in the treatment of derivational morphology for different languages (either modern or ancient) can arise, and potentials for the cross-linguistic sharing of techniques and methods can be discussed. TOPICS The Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology aims at covering a wide range of topics. In particular, the topics to be addressed in the workshop include (but are not limited to) the following: - resources for derivational morphology - connecting the derivational morphology level of annotation in language resources with other levels of linguistic analysis (e.g. semantic, syntactic…) - (NLP) tools for the semi-automatic creation of resources for derivational morphology - (NLP) tools including components of derivational morphology - empirically based comparative and multilingual studies on derivational morphology - empirically based diachronic studies on derivational morphology - query tools for derivational morphology resources - theoretical issues in derivational morphology. INVITED SPEAKER: Pius ten Hacken (University of Innsbruck, Austria) IMPORTANT DATES Deadlines: always midnight, UTC ('Coordinated Universal Time'), ignoring DST ('Daylight Saving Time'): - Deadline for paper submission: 18 June 2017 - Notification of acceptance: 24 July 2017 - Final, camera-ready, version of paper: 10 September 2017 - Workshop: 5-6 October 2017 INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION We invite to submit long abstracts describing original, unpublished research related to the topics of the workshop. Abstracts should not exceed 6 pages (references included). The language of the workshop is English. All abstracts must be submitted in well-checked English. Abstracts should be submitted in PDF format only. Submissions have to be made via the EasyChair page of the workshop at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=derimo2017. Please, first register at EasyChair if you do not have an EasyChair account. The style guidelines to follow for the paper can be found here: http://derimo2017.marginalia.it/index.php/CfP/authors-kit. Please, note that as reviewing will be double-blind, the abstract should not include the authors' names and affiliations or any references to web-sites, project names etc. revealing the authors' identity. Furthermore, any self-reference should be avoided. For instance, instead of "We previously showed (Brown, 2001)...", use citations such as "Brown previously showed (Brown, 2001)...". Each submitted abstract will be reviewed by three members of the programme committee. The authors of the accepted abstracts will be required to submit the full version of their paper, which may be extended up to 10 pages (references included).

Announcing First Annual Force 11 Scholarly Communication Institute @ University of California San Diego (FSCI@UCSD) July 30-August 4
by O'Donnell, Dan 10 Feb '17

10 Feb '17

A new annual initiative that may be of interest to many on this list. Please feel free to pass this on to other lists and also consider either attending or proposing workshops. Although there is an injunction delaying the enforcement of recent U.executive order regarding immigration to the U.S., the organisers of FSCI recognise that many potential attendees and instructors may have concerns about access and safety in this and future years. The Force 11 executive has issued two<https://www.force11.org/article/force11-statement-restrictions-immigration> statements<https://www.force11.org/blog/force11-executive-board-statement-restrictions…> on the recent immigration ban and is working actively to improve its ability to respond to and support the needs of people affected by these and other restrictions. Force 11 also has a long and successful track record of funding student attendees and attendees from mid and low income economies to its events. It has several grant applications under consideration to support future attendance and hopes to be able to continue this support in this and future years.

FSCI@UCSD<http://force11.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=5e2d2ee75f2d3afd1d39a666d&…> is a week-long program that offers participants training, networking and skills development in new modes of research communication. The UC San Diego Library is hosting the event that will take place at the Institute of the Americas on the UC San Diego Campus. “The research community lacks a forum for coordinated access to training, skills development, and expert knowledge on new modes of research communication,” says Cameron Neylon, President of Force 11, “even as funders are mandating change and the wider world has embraced new forms of communication.” Based on proven models in other disciplines, FSCI@UCSD will bring world-leading experts in different aspects of scholarly communication to San Diego to design and deliver courses that will help participants to navigate this new world. Courses will be established for all levels, from absolute beginners to experts. They will also be aimed at different audiences, including students, researchers, administrators, funders, and information professionals, including librarians and publishers. Typical topics to be covered at the annual event will include: Introductory Level * Open Access, Open Source, Open Data, What Does this All Mean? * Building a Digital Presence: Social Media, Repositories, and the Researcher * Research Communications 101: Tools for Improving Scholarly Communication * Data and Other Forms of Non-narrative Publication * Understanding Research Metrics * Open Peer Review: How to give and Receive Criticism Advanced * Copyright, Open Access and Open Data * New Metrics and How to Use Them to Build a Research Portfolio * Introduction to Open Data Management * Implications of OA on Research Publications * Making it Work: Knowledge Mobilization, Knowledge Translation, and Popularization Specialised/Topic Focussed * Implementing Successful Open Access, and Open Data Mandates * Supporting the Research Lifecycle for Researchers and Administrators * Evaluating New Forms of Research Publication * Implications of OA on Publication and Collection Building * Data Ownership and Copyright Issues * Data-informed Strategy for Institutional Leaders * Maximizing Impact Across Disciplines * Increasing Transparency and Reproducibility in Research Communications “Scholarly Communication is in a disruptive phase at the moment. Students know the rules that governed their supervisors’ early careers are changing” said Maryann Martone, past president of Force 11 and UCSD professor emerita. “Libraries know the current publishing and data repository system is unsustainable; researchers know the systems within which they have worked are changing rapidly,” adds Brian Schottlaender, UCSD’s Audrey Geisel University Librarian. “Administrators know government, industry, funders, and the general public are expecting research to be performed, communicated, and measured in new ways. But knowing that things are changing is not the same as understanding what those changes are or how individuals and institutions can navigate them. This is what FSCI@UCSD will provide.” For more information or to sign up to receive further information about the FSCI@UCSD, visit www.force11.org/fsci<http://force11.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=5e2d2ee75f2d3afd1d39a666d…> Comment on Location Given the uncertainty regarding travel to the US and the recent FORCE11 Statement<http://force11.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=5e2d2ee75f2d3afd1d39a666d&…> on travel restrictions, there may be questions regarding the location of the Institute in San Diego. The Institute has been in planning with UCSD for some time and UCSD has committed to providing long-term and substantial financial, administrative, and intellectual support. This support allows us to focus our fundraising on supporting travel for those who who would otherwise be unable to attend, which has been a feature of our work in planning FORCE11 meetings for some years. While the current situation makes this harder, we elected to move forward with the planned location. We remain committed to working to mitigate the effects of restrictions to travel across the full set of FORCE11 events. Click on the links below if you wish to participate.
