 CORPUS LINGUISTICS 2013: First Announcement and Call for Workshops
 ==================================================================
 
 
 The seventh international CORPUS LINGUISTICS conference (CL2013) will
 be held at Lancaster University from Tuesday 23rd July 2013 to Friday
 26th July 2013. The main conference will be preceded by a workshop day
 on Monday 22nd July.
 
 The goals of the conference are as follows.
 
 *  To gather together current and developing research in the study and
    application of corpus linguistics;
 *  To push the field forwards by promoting dialogue among the many
    different users of corpora across interconnected sub-disciplines of
    linguistics - be they descriptive, theoretical, applied or
    computational;
 *  To explore new challenges both within corpus linguistics, and in the
    extension of corpus approaches to new fields of study.
 
 With these goals in mind, we invite contributions on as broad and
 inclusive a basis as possible. The areas in which we particularly
 welcome submissions include but are not limited to:
 
 *  Critical explorations of existing measures and methods in corpus
    linguistics;
 *  New methods and techniques in corpus development, annotation and
    analysis;
 *  Corpus approaches to the study of new media;
 *  New tools and techniques developed in corpus-based computational
    linguistics;
 *  The application of corpus approaches in the social sciences and
    humanities;
 *  The extension of corpus linguistics to an ever-wider range of
    (non-English) languages;
 *  The interface between corpus and theory;
 *  The use of corpora in discourse analysis;
 *  The use of corpora in second language acquisition studies and
    language pedagogy.
 
 The following speakers have accepted our invitation to give plenary
 lectures at CL2013:
 
 *  Karin Aijmer
 *  Guy Cook
 *  Michael Hoey
 *  Ute Römer
 
 With this announcement, we issue our main Call for Workshops, and
 provide advance notice of our Call for Papers.
 
 ==================
 CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
 ==================
 
 As noted above, CL2013 will include a workshop day on Monday 22nd July
 2013. We hereby issue a call for workshop proposals on any theme
 relevant to the conference.
 
 "Workshops" may take two main forms.
 
 The first type is the **colloquium-style workshop**, which operates as
 a mini-conference with its own programme committee and call for papers
 to be presented: proposals for this type of workshop should specify
 the scope of the workshop, who its organisers will be, and whether the
 creation of workshop proceedings is envisaged. Proposals should also
 provide an initial version of the text of the call for papers.
 
 The other main type of workshop is a **practical or applied workshop**
 providing a demonstration of or training in some particular corpus
 #linguistic technique or piece of software. In this case the proposal
 must explain the content of the workshop, provide an initial version
 of the text of a call for participation, and give an indication of
 the workshop's IT requirements, if any.
 
 We are also happy to consider innovative forms of workshop
 intermediate between colloquium-style workshop and practical workshop.
 
 All proposals must in addition specify the proposed length. Our
 timetable allows for the following lengths of workshop:
 
 *  Full-day workshop - up to 7 hours (plus lunch/breaks)
 *  Half-day workshop - up to 3.5 hours (plus break)
 *  Short workshop    - up to 2 hours (single session)
 
 There is no fixed format for workshop proposals, as long as they
 include all the details specified above. Proposals should be sent by
 email to Andrew Hardie <a.hardie@lancaster.ac.uk> by the end of
 October. We are happy to respond to informal expressions of interest
 in advance of formal submission of a proposal.
 
 ========================================
 ABSTRACTS FOR PAPERS, POSTERS AND PANELS
 ========================================
 
 We invite submission of abstracts for papers, posters and panels on
 any topic relevant to the conference theme.
 
 For this conference, we are requesting **extended abstracts**
 (750-1500 words), as we do not plan to produce a volume of conference
 proceedings. All abstracts will be peer-reviewed by the conference
 programme committee.
 
 PAPER PRESENTATIONS will consist of a 20 minute talk followed by 10
 minutes for questions and discussion. Please note: paper submissions
 should present either complete research, or research in progress where
 at least some substantial results have been achieved. Work in progress
 which has yet to produce results can be submitted as a poster abstract
 - see below.
 
 Submissions for PANEL DISCUSSIONS should take the form of a single
 1500 word abstract on behalf of all speakers to be on the panel. The
 abstract should include a note to specify whether the panel is
 intended to be 1 hour or 1.5 hours in length.
 
 Submissions for POSTER PRESENTATIONS should be shorter (400-750
 words). We especially welcome poster abstracts that (a) report on
 innovative research that is in its very earliest phases (b) report on
 new software or corpus data resources.
 
 We especially encourage abstract submissions from early-career
 researchers, including postgraduate research students and postdoctoral
 researchers.
 
 All abstracts must be submitted via the conference website; the
 submission system will be live from 31st October 2012.
 
 A further call for papers, with full submission details, will be
 released in early November.
