The 2026 Texas Conference on Digital Libraries (TCDL) is looking for volunteer peer reviewers for our short paper track.
While conference presentations are great for sharing ideas, short papers allow presenters to share more data and context. Once reviewed, these papers will be published in the Texas Digital Library (TDL) Digital Repository to serve as a permanent resource for the community.
Who can review?
We welcome both first-time and experienced reviewers. If you have knowledge or experience in any of the following areas, we want to hear from you:
- Digital collections and preservation
- Open education and scholarly communication
- Digital humanities
- Related library and information science topics
Why participate?
- Help colleagues improve the quality of their research.
- Influence the scholarship being produced within the TDL community.
- Receive a digital certificate of participation for your professional records.
What is the time commitment?
- You will be assigned 1-3 blind submissions.
- You will have about three weeks to complete reviews via TDL’s Open Journal Systems (OJS).
- Detailed instructions are available in our Peer Review Guidelines.
