SIGIR 2025 - Call for Tutorials


The annual ACM SIGIR Conference is the premier international forum for
presenting new research results and showcasing innovative systems and
techniques in the broad field of Information Retrieval (IR). The 48th ACM
SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval will
take place from *July 13=E2=80=9318, 2025*, in *Padova, Italy.*



SIGIR 2025 invites tutorial proposals for half-day (3 hours) or full-day (6
hours) sessions that provide attendees with in-depth introductions to
specific topics within the field of IR. Tutorials should engage attendees
with current and emerging themes. The topics generally align with those
outlined in the SIGIR 2025 general call for papers
<https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/call-full-papers.html>; proposals on other
topics related to IR are also welcome.



*Important Dates*

All deadlines follow the Anywhere on Earth (AoE) time zone.

=E2=97=8F      Tutorial Proposal Submission Deadline: *March 27, 2025*

=E2=97=8F      Notification of Acceptance: *April 17, 2025*

=E2=97=8F      Tutorial Day: *July 13, 2025*



*Submission Guidelines*

Submissions should include a *cover sheet *and an *extended abstract*. The
cover sheet should include the following elements:

=E2=97=8F      Title and length (half-day or full-day) of the tutorial.

=E2=97=8F      Tutorial format: SIGIR 2025 will be a fully in-person event.=
 The
presenters are expected to attend in person.

=E2=97=8F      Intended audience (introductory, intermediate, advanced) and
prerequisite knowledge or skills.

=E2=97=8F      Detailed contact information of all presenters, including th=
e main
contact person.

=E2=97=8F      Brief biographies (maximum 2 paragraphs) of all presenters,
highlighting their expertise and prior experience in presenting tutorials,
teaching, or organizing related events.

=E2=97=8F      Indicate whether and where the tutorial has been presented b=
efore.

The extended abstract (no longer than 4 pages) should include the following
sections:

=E2=97=8F      *Motivation:* Explain the importance of the tutorial topic.

=E2=97=8F      *Objectives:* Clearly state what attendees will learn and ac=
hieve.

=E2=97=8F      *Relevance:* Demonstrate the tutorial=E2=80=99s significance=
 to the IR and
recommender systems communities, referencing relevant tutorials from SIGIR
or other leading conferences (e.g., WSDM, WWW, KDD, ACL, EMNLP, RecSys,
ICML).

=E2=97=8F      *Format and Schedule:* Provide a detailed agenda, including =
breaks
and interactive components.

=E2=97=8F      *Materials:* Describe any supporting materials that will be =
provided
to attendees (e.g., slides, datasets, code).



Tutorial proposals should be prepared in the current ACM two-column
conference format. Suitable LaTeX, Word, and Overleaf templates are
available from the ACM Website (use the =E2=80=9Csigconf=E2=80=9D proceedin=
gs template).



Proposals should be submitted in PDF through the EasyChair system:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3Dsigir2025

Please select the =E2=80=9C*SIGIR 2025 Tutorials*=E2=80=9D track.



Proposals will be evaluated based on their relevance, timeliness, technical
depth, clarity, and potential for attendee engagement. Tutorial presenters
are expected to deliver high-quality sessions that foster interactive
learning.



The organizers of accepted tutorials will be invited to submit a
camera-ready summary of the tutorial, which will be included in the
conference proceedings.


*In-Person Attendance Policy*SIGIR 2025 is an in-person conference. Despite
the challenges it may pose, we believe that an in-person conference is more
beneficial in terms of direct engagement and networking opportunities, more
dynamic exchange of research ideas, and welcoming and nurturing newcomers.


All accepted papers (including all tracks) to the main conference and
workshops are expected to be presented in-person. We anticipate that at
least one author from each accepted paper will attend the conference in
person to deliver the paper and address audience questions during the Q&A
session. No pre-recorded videos will be accepted. More information at the
<https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/inpresence-policy.html>SIGIR 2025
In-presence Policy <https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/inpresence-policy.html>
page.


*Child Care Service*SIGIR 2025 promotes inclusion and attendance also by
organizing a child care service, to foster work-family balance by offering
congress attendees the opportunity to attend events with their children.


Children from 0 to 12 years of age are welcomed in a specially set up room
inside Padua Congress Center throughout the duration of the congress. A
colorful, =E2=80=9Cwarm=E2=80=9D, safe and welcoming environment, in the sa=
me structure
that hosts the congresses, a protected place where parents can leave their
children, but at the same time stay in touch with them during the breaks of
the different sessions.

The nursery space dedicated to the 0-3 age group, equipped with a changing
table and other facilities dedicated to the little ones, is next to the
kids=E2=80=99 area for children over 3 years old and a cinema room for
screenings.

The activities are run by a company specialized in education services with
expert staff, appointed by Padua Congress Center, and include thematic
workshops - from painting to creative activities - as well as playtime also
in the open air, in the facility's outdoor spaces. Children are also
offered lunch.

The service is available - for a fee (depending on sponsors) - to all SIGIR
2025 attendees who request it. For more information and updates, check out
the <https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/child-care.html>SIGIR 2025 Child Care
<https://sigir2025.dei.unipd.it/child-care.html> page.
