[Jared Lyle]

We are happy to announce the Call for Proposals for the 7th Annual North
American Data Documentation Initiative Conference (NADDI)
<http://naddiconf.org/2019/>.  The Data Documentation Initiative (DDI) is
an international standard for describing the data produced by surveys and
other observational methods in the social, behavioral, economic, and health
sciences.

*NADDI 2019 Theme*
The conference theme is "Benefits of Describing Statistical Production and
Variables," which emphasizes the benefits of using metadata to drive
efficiencies in a research data lifecycle, as well as promotes subsequent
re-use of end data products, especially those generated by federal
and national statistical agencies.  The keynote speaker will be Anil Arora,
Chief Statistician of Canada.

Aimed at individuals working in and around data and metadata, NADDI 2019
