We are pleased to announce the upcoming halfday workshop on Knowledge Maps and Information Retrieval (KMIR), to be held as part of the International Conference on Digital Libraries 2014 - ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL 2014) and International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries (TPDL 2014), London, 8th-12th September 2014 (http://www.dl2014.org<http://www.dl2014.org/>/).

Abstract: Knowledge maps are promising tools for visualizing the structure of large-scale information spaces, but still far away from being applicable for searching. The workshop aims at bringing together experts in IR and knowledge mapping in order to discuss the potential of interactive knowledge maps for information seeking purposes.
We now have a very good program together for the KMIR workshop. Consult the workshop page (see above) for the preliminary program.

If you will attend the workshop, don't forget to register for workshops at die DL2014 registration page. In addition, please notify me (CC to my secretary julia.achenbach at gesi.org<mailto:julia.achenbach at gesi.org>) about your attendance.

Kind regards,
Peter Mutschke
