| '''needs editing''' ---- == Workshop Chair == The Workshop Chair is responsible for collaborating with the workshop chairs for other ACL-affiliated conferences in the given year, in preparing and circulating the Call for Proposals, and in reviewing submissions. Once the workshops for a given conference have been identified, the Workshop Chair is responsible for arranging dates, locations, refreshments, presentation and computer requirements, and all other special needs. '''It is essential that the workshop chair recognize the different kinds of workshops and understand the policies regarding each --- information regarding this can be found in [[Overview page including policies|Workshop overview and policies]]'''. The call for workshop proposals should request that workshop organizers ask potential members of their proposed program committees to agree to serve, before submitting a workshop proposal. The call for proposals used at recent ACL conferences can be found at [[recent ACL calls for workshop proposals]] Before '''accepting''' a workshop proposal, the conference workshop chair should check with individual workshop chairs to make sure that the proposed members of the program committee have agreed to serve. Large SIGs are expected to seek pre-approval for their workshops (see point 14 of the SIG Guidelines, at [http://www.aclweb.org/downloads/sig_guidelines.txt]). The workshops must be self-financing (at least); profits belong to ACL (an exception is for SIG workshops --- see [[ACL Policies on SIG Workshops|ACL-policy-on-Sig-workshops]]). Sample Calls for Papers for recent ACL workshops from can be found in [[sample workshop calls for papers]]. Proceedings are printed and distributed by the ACL. For formatting (title page, etc.) see [[workshop-proceedings]]. ''NB. The ACLPUB package has been incorporated into the Start Conference Management software, for end-to-end processing of ACL Proceedings. ACLPUB software should not be used, starting from 2010.'' |

Since 2009 EACL workshops proposals have been solicited and handled in conjunction with the other major conferences in the same year (e.g. ACL and EMNLP in 2014) as part of a joint call and joint selection process. This has created some tension for EACL, since it is typically the first conference of the year and so would require earlier deadlines than the other conferences if dealt with independently. Hence it is crucial for the EACL workshop chairs to engage with the other conferences as soon as possible, in order to agree on a schedule which is not detrimental (i.e. too tight) to the EACL workshops.
