KULA: Knowledge Creation, Dissemination, and Preservation Studies invites proposals for its Special Issue on Metadata, Knowledge, and Open Knowledge Projects
https://kula.journals.publicknowledgeproject.org/index.php/kula/announcemen…
We encourage submissions on a wide range of work, projects, and ideas in relation to metadata and knowledge including, but not limited to, the following:
· How metadata functions as knowledge and/or creates meaning
· The use of linked open data to facilitate the interaction between metadata and bodies of knowledge
· Critiques of metadata and what is “knowable”
· The role of metadata and open knowledge in addressing, or not addressing, issues of under- and misrepresentation of traditionally marginalized groups and knowledge
· The role of metadata and open knowledge projects in addressing human rights issues and inequality
· The creation of tools and technologies that allow metadata and open knowledge platform data to interact and flow into one another
· Open knowledge projects that re-purpose metadata created elsewhere
· Cultural heritage organization (libraries, archives, galleries, and museums) and academic projects that contribute to or leverage open knowledge platforms such as Wikidata
· Reports of practical and technical elements of the contribution and reception of open and community-contributed knowledge in cultural heritage organization and academic project metadata
We are seeking contributions in diverse formats: short- to medium-length scholarly articles; project or technical reports; and creative (visual and/or audio) representations of projects or ongoing work. Please submit abstracts of 300-500 words through the journal’s website by January 31, 2021. Based on these abstracts, we will then invite authors to submit full pieces for editorial consideration and, if applicable, peer review.
For more information please see the KULA website:

York University Libraries
York University recognizes that many Indigenous Nations have longstanding relationships with the territories upon which York University campuses are located that precede the establishment of York University. York University acknowledges its presence on the traditional territory of many Indigenous Nations. The area known as Tkaronto has been care taken by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Huron-Wendat. It is now home to many First Nation, Inuit and Métis communities. We acknowledge the current treaty holders, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This territory is subject of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement to peaceably share and care for the Great Lakes region.
Hello all,
Thought this might interest some of you.. :)

Subject: [cc-openedu] Column submissions invited
To: Open Education Platform <cc-openedu(a)googlegroups.com>
*Please excuse any cross-postings. *
Second reminder: Proposals are due this Monday, 9/21!
*You are invited to submit a proposal for the Journal of New
Librarianship’s On Innovation in Libraries column. *
*Innovations in a Time of Crisis and Complexity*
Rogers (2003) defined innovation as an “idea, practice, or object that is
perceived as new by an individual or other unit of adoption” (p. 12).
Innovations may take place as social problems gain a position of high
priority in response to heightened recognition of problems or needs
(Rogers, 2003). As the Journal of New Librarianship completes its
transition to OJS at CU Boulder, we are issuing a call for proposals for
the column, *On Innovation in Libraries*. The theme for this cycle of
column publications will explore the topic of library innovations in a time
of crisis and complexity during which we have seen exacerbation of existing
inequalities (Campbell, 2020). We invite you to share what this has looked
like in your Library’s praxis.
Completed columns will be 1,500 - 3,000 words. Researchers and
practitioners are invited to submit proposals of 200-500 words on or
before *Monday,
September 21, 2020*. Authors will be notified by Wednesday, October 21,
2020 regarding the status of their proposals and to discuss a timeline for
column submission, editorial review, and publication in early 2021 on the
new OJS platform.
*Please submit column proposals via this web form.*

Hello Wikimedians & librarians,
Please join us tomorrow for a free webinar, launching the News On Wiki
initiative. Sherry Antoine and I will be talking with librarians Jessamyn
West and Molly Schwartzburg, about how to build lists (of newspapers that
need articles, and of source materials for writing articles).
We expect this to be a lively session, of interest to new and experienced
Wikipedians alike. We hope you can join us!
