TPDL2017 Call for Tutorials
International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries
18-21 September 2017
Grand Hotel Palace, Thessaloniki, Greece
http://www.tpdl.eu/tpdl2017

* Introduction *
Tutorial topics should have a direct relevance to the topics of the conference. Anticipated areas of interest at the time of TPDL2017 include topics related to digital libraries, their foundations and methodologies, as well as their relevant applications and usages, including cross-disciplinary areas such as information retrieval, databases, information visualization, natural language processing, data mining and machine learning. We especially welcome tutorials bridging multiple areas, or presenting new perspectives in these areas, and tutorials with a practical hands-on approach that educate participants in using a specific methodology or technology after the tutorial.

The tutorials are part of the main conference. Therefore proposals will be considered for short tutorials of 1.5 hrs and 3 hrs. Tutorials may cover material either at an introductory level (introducing new areas of research or practice to attendees), or in depth (advancing the understanding of attendees with basic familiarity of the area). Tutorials may target researchers, practitioners, or the field as a whole.

* Proposal *
A tutorial proposal should include the following:
- Title of the tutorial
- Instructor(s) and their credentials (short CV, link to personal web page)
- Aims, scope and learning objectives of the tutorial

- Full description (1-2 pages to be used for evaluation)
- Tutorial history (previous offerings of tutorial, if any)
- Format of tutorial (1.5 hrs or 3 hrs)
- Target audience (introductory, intermediate, advanced) and expected prerequisite knowledge of the audience
