R2R Call for Papers – first deadline next week
The Researcher to Reader Conference will take place in London on 25-26 February 2025, and the call for papers is currently open. There are two deadlines: 31 July and 31 August.
- A proposal by 31 July greatly increases your chance of being accepted, as the conference team guarantees to review it and make suggestions for improvements, by the middle of August. This will give you time to revise the proposal, which will greatly increase the chance that it will be understood and appreciated by the review committee.
- Sending in your proposal by the final deadline of 31 August is also an option. It will be quickly reviewed during the first week in September, and will either be sent directly to the review committee to take its chances as it stands, or rejected.
Conference director Mark Carden said: “We already have a few proposals that have been completed before the first deadline, and some more in progress, but we are keen to have many more, as soon as possible.
“We particularly encourage proposals from researchers, editors, funders and librarians, and from people based outside the UK. We are also strong supporters of diversity and inclusion, and actively welcome proposals from under-represented demographics. High-quality Workshop proposals have the highest acceptance rate.”
Guidance about the Call for Papers is on the R2R Website.
