The HCI Writers' Group meets every Tuesday 12-1:30 in the SI North Convergence Room. Lunch is served.

Charter: The focus of this group is writing papers for CHI and related conferences and journals. These include all of the ACM SIGCHI-affiliated conferences (e.g., CSCW, UIST, DIS) as well as a few others where HCI folks might publish on a somewhat regular basis. We have a full list of conferences of interest along with submissions deadlines farther down on this page.

Upcoming Conference and Special Issue Deadlines

This list should be maintained in chronological order, with the soonest deadlines appearing first. Deadlines in bold indicate archival publication opportunities.

What should go in this list? All the obvious ones, obviously, as well as any conferences you're considering submitting something to. Don't feel obliged to post everything that turns up on CHI-ANNOUNCE (which you should subscribe to, by the way) on here, as there are gazillions of workshops and minor conferences that would make this list grow to an absurd length.
