SIGIR is the major international forum for the presentation of new research results and for the demonstration of new systems and techniques in the broad field of information retrieval (IR). The Conference and Program Chairs invite all those working in areas related to IR to submit original research contributions, posters, and proposals for tutorials, workshops, and demonstrations of systems.

Program Chairs: Gary Marchionini, University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, USA; Alistair Moffat, University of Melbourne, Australia; John Tait, Sunderland University, UK

Submission guidelines

Authors are invited to submit research papers representing original, previously unpublished work, on or before January 28, 2005. Note that papers may not be submitted to other venues concurrently with SIGIR. In spite of this policy, duplicate submissions continue to be a problem. Beginning in 2005 the authors of duplicate submissions will not be permitted to submit papers to the SIGIR conference in the following year. Papers must be submitted electronically, via the submission web page. Papers must not exceed 8 pages in 9 point font and be submitted as pdf or ps files. Papers exceeding the limits will be rejected without review. SIGIR review is doubleblind. This means that all submissions must not have any identifying information (do not put the author(s) or affiliation(s) on the paper). Submitted papers should be in the ACM Conference style, see http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html, using the "Option 2" style. This is also the style that will be required for final papers.
