CALL FOR POSTERS
The 11th DLfM conference (https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk), held at the Stellenbosch University
Konservatorium in South Africa, 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). This year’s
conference will be held in association with the annual conference of the International
Association of Music Libraries, Archives, and Documentation Centres (IAML,
https://iaml2024.sun.ac.za/). In bringing these two conferences together we aim to
encourage new collaborations and foster larger group discussions surrounding prominent
issues in the digital humanities.
As this will be the first iteration of DLfM taking place on the African continent, we strongly
encourage proposals from individuals working on music in Africa within various disciplines
and from a range of perspectives, particularly addressing the theme “Musicology of the
Global South: The Role of Digital Libraries.”
The conference strongly encourages posters that address this year’s theme; however, we
welcome all posters addressing all traditional topics that fall under the scope of DLfM.
Posters will be permanently placed on the DLfM website, and poster presenters will have the
opportunity to present their work in a dedicated poster session. More details will be
announced on the DLfM website soon (https://dlfm.web.ox.ac.uk).
