===================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS HUMAN'26 - 9th Workshop on Human Factors in Hypertext Official workshop of the ACM Hypertext Conference '26 Sponsored by ACM SIGWEB * 14/15 Sep 2026 * London, UK ===================================================== HUMAN on Mastodon: @HUMAN@hci.social -- https://hci.social/@HUMAN HUMAN on Bluesky: @human-ht.bsky.social -- https://bsky.app/profile/human-ht.bsky.social Social media hashtag: #HUMAN26 Workshop website: https://human.iisys.de/human26/ ** INTRODUCTION HUMAN'26 is the nineth workshop of a series for the ACM Hypertext conferences. It is sponsored by SIGWEB and affiliated with the 37th ACM Conference on Hypertext. It has a strong focus on human factors combining user-centric hypertext and artificial intelligence (AI) to create intelligent hypertext systems. The user-centric view on hypertext not only includes user interfaces and interaction, but also discussions about hypertext application domains. Furthermore, the workshop raises the question of how original hypertext ideas (e.g., Doug Engelbart's "augmenting human intellect" or Frank Halasz' "hypertext as a medium for thinking and communication") can improve today's hypertext systems. The HUMAN'26 workshop will be held hybrid, that is, taking place in London and being streamed via Zoom. For further information see the workshop website and follow us on Mastodon or Bluesky. ** SCOPE Historically, hypertext is strongly connected to human factors. This can be experienced by the early work provided by hypertext pioneers, such as Doug Engelbart or Ted Nelson. However, recent research trends have shadowed this in parts. Therefore, this workshop combines original hypertext ideas with recent hypertext research trends. Furthermore, it tries to consolidate different hypertext areas by looking at those from the viewpoint of human factors. HUMAN also encourages to submit work that has an interdisciplinary perspective. It targets both scientists and developers from various research and business areas who consider a critical and open-minded discussion of original hypertext ideas with the goal of identifying and solving today's hypertext challenges. Relevant topics include (but are not limited to): - Systems for augmenting human intellect - User-centric hypertext systems - User interfaces and interactions - Cognitive aspects and hypertext - Collaborative hypertext and social media - Information structuring - Hypertext used for human communication - Hypertext and decision making - Spatial hypertext - Annotation services - Organizing information - Human-Centered Information Systems - Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence - eXplainable AI in hypertext - Large Language Models in human-centered hypertext systems - VR or AR environments for hypertext - Information structuring in digital humanities - User perspectives in adaptive hypertext - Social aspects of humans using hypertext - Intercultural aspects in hypertext ** SUBMISSION All papers must be original and may not be published, submitted, and/or currently under review elsewhere. Each submission will be peer reviewed in a double-blind manner. Accepted submission types: - long paper (between 5 and 10 pages, 2-column, excl. references) - short paper (max. 4 pages, 2-column, excl. references) - position paper (max. 2 pages, 2-column, excl. references) Papers must follow the ACM publication workflow. General submission instructions and paper templates can be found on the HT'26 call for research papers page: https://ht.acm.org/ht2026/open-calls/submission-instructions/ All accepted papers presented at the workshop will be published in the ACM Digital Library. ** IMPORTANT DATES Submission deadline: July 19, 2026 (AOE) Notification of acceptance: August 10, 2026 (AOE) Camera ready papers due: August 16, 2026 (AOE) Workshop: September 14 or 15, 2026 ** WORKSHOP ORGANIZERS If you have any questions please feel free to contact the organizers: Prof. Dr. Claus Atzenbeck Institute for Information Systems, Hof University, Germany E-Mail: claus.atzenbeck@iisys.de Mastodon: @clausatz@hci.social -- https://hci.social/@clausatz Bluesky: @clausatz.bsky.social -- https://bsky.app/profile/clausatz.bsky.social LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/atzenbeck/ Prof. Dr. Jessica Rubart OWL University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Germany E-mail: jessica.rubart@th-owl.de LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessicarubart/
