We are pleased to announce that the 15th biennial RANLP conference will take place in September 2025 at the Black Sea city of Varna. In addition to the conference programme of competitively peer-reviewed papers reporting on the recent advances of a wide range of NLP topics, the RANLP conference features keynote talks by leading experts in NLP. Poster and demo sessions will be held at the conference exhibition area. The conference will be preceded by three days of summer school on Deep Learning and LLMs for NLP (3-5 September 2025) and two days of tutorials (6-7 September 2025). Post-conference specialised workshops as well as shared tasks covering timely NLP topics will be held on 11-13 September 2025. A Student Research Workshop will run in parallel to the main conference. The Student Research Workshops (now the 9th edition) have become active discussion fora for young researchers.
As from RANLP 2009, the papers accepted at RANLP and the associated workshops are included in the ACL Anthology. The RANLP proceedings are indexed by SCOPUS and DBLP. The SCOPUS SJR of RANLP proceedings is 0,299 (2023). After 2017, all accepted papers have DOI numbers.
