********************************

  The deadline for submitting papers for review to the 2006 Canadian
Symposium on Text Analysis (CaSTA) conference has been extended to April 7,
2006.  CaSTA 2006 will be held at the University of New Brunswick in
Fredericton, and promises to be an exciting event with five invited
speakers, four pre-conference workshops, one post-conference workshop and
interesting papers discussing text analysis research.

  If you have not already done so, we encourage you to submit a paper on one
of the following (or related) areas:
  .Text analysis from a Humanities Computing perspective
  .Interface Design and usability issues
  .Applying Computer Science research to textual questions 
The CaSTA Program Committee invites submissions that focus on the ways in
which researchers mine, manipulate and use electronic texts, where "texts"
are understood in a broad sense to extend to and include multimedia.

  The complete call for papers and submission guidelines can be found at:
     http://www.lib.unb.ca/casta2006/
Co-sponsors include the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of
Canada, the Society for Digital Humanities and the Association for Computing
Machinery (in cooperation).

  It would be much appreciated if you could forward this message on to
others you think might be interested in submitting a paper to CaSTA 2006.
