CfP: Pivotal Players: Academic reflections special issue
by Menno Van Zaanen 26 May '26

26 May '26

Dear Colleague, We are writing to invite you to contribute to a curated collection of articles titled Pivotal Players: Academic reflections on major works that have shaped research across the Arts, Humanities, and Social Science. ABOUT THE COLLECTION The collection is premised on a deceptively simple observation: while researchers regularly build on prior scholarship, we rarely pause to reflect explicitly on which works have shaped us, and how. This collection creates a dedicated space for exactly that reflection. Contributors are invited to select a publication from before 2000 that has inspired them in their own research; this may include, but is not limited to, a seminal book, article, or comparable scholarly work, and write a reflective piece examining its impact: on the field broadly, on your own intellectual and methodological development, or both. Contributions need not be uncritical. The collection welcomes honest assessments of a work's limitations, contested legacies, or the ways a field has moved beyond, or failed to move beyond, its foundational assumptions. The collection is anchored in Digital Humanities but is explicitly transdisciplinary. Given that Digital Humanities is a relatively young field, contributors are encouraged to draw on influential works from cognate disciplines, including the social sciences, humanities, media studies, information science, musicology, education, and beyond, and to articulate how those works connect to current digital scholarship. At a moment when knowledge production is accelerating, and the boundaries of the digital humanities are being actively renegotiated, this kind of reflexive scholarship helps the field understand its own genealogy, surface underrepresented intellectual lineages, and think more carefully about the assumptions embedded in foundational texts. Routledge Open Research uses a transparent, post-publication peer- review model that enables rapid publication and ongoing scholarly dialogue. The format itself, reflective, personal, and rigorous, also offers academics the rare opportunity to be truly transparent about the works that have genuinely formed their thinking. For more information about this new publication format, please contact Kristen Brida <Kristen.Brida(a)taylorandfrancis.com>. SUBMISSION DETAILS Final submission deadline (with rolling submission): 31 March 2027 Collection page and submission portal: https://routledgeopenresearch.org/collections/academic-reflections-major-wo… We would warmly welcome your contribution. If you are interested or would like to discuss a potential piece before committing, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.

[CFP] 3rd Workshop on Language Models for Underserved Communities (LM4UC)
by Fred PHILIPPY 20 May '26

20 May '26

We are excited to announce the 3rd Language Models for Underserved Communities (LM4UC) workshop, co-located with IJCAI 2026. The workshop will take place in person and virtually between August 15-17, 2026, in Bremen. LM4UC invites researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to address challenges and propose innovative solutions for building and deploying language models (LMs) for underserved languages and communities. Underserved communities often lack adequate access to advanced NLP technologies due to limited linguistic data, insufficient computational resources, or inadequate AI governance frameworks. This gap hinders equitable access to NLP advancements, exacerbating the digital divide. Our workshop aims to address this by fostering a multidisciplinary dialogue around the development of LMs that prioritize cultural sensitivity, resource efficiency, and sustainable AI practices. Topics of Interest We invite submissions of full papers, ongoing work, position papers, and survey papers on topics including, but not limited to: 1. Evaluation Design: Evaluations are no longer passive datasets. They are mechanisms that shape model development. We invite research that focuses on principled, technically grounded benchmark design. 2. Cultural Alignment & Safety: Most alignment research assumes Western norms. We invite papers that focus on technically grounded alignment methods that generalize across cultures and languages. 3. Agentic Systems in Global Environments: As LLMs become agents, we need formal evaluation and control in multilingual, multi-cultural environments. Submission Guidelines We welcome long papers (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages), excluding references. Submissions must follow the IJCAI 2026 style guidelines. Important Dates * Submission deadline: May 24, 2026 * Notification of acceptance: June 7, 2026 * Camera-ready paper due: August 1, 2026 * Workshop dates: August 15/16/17, 2026 Submit your paper via OpenReview: https://openreview.net/group?id=ijcai.org/IJCAI/2026/Workshop/LM4UC Contact Us: For inquiries, please contact the workshop organizer: lm4uc.organizers(a)gmail.com<mailto:lm4uc.organizers@gmail.com> <mailto:lm4uc.organizers@gmail.com>
