The ACM Hypertext Conference is the best place to learn about current research on hypertext, hypermedia, and the Web.

The overwhelming majority of important research papers on these topics appear in the Proceedings Of The Hypertext Conference. Many volumes are available from the ACM or through Eastgate (http://www.eastgate.com/catalog/Books.html)

Each year, the Hypertext Conference bestows the EngelbartAward for the best research paper, the NelsonAward for the best paper by a new author, and TheBernies for the best hypertext.

The Hypertext Conference is sponsored by SigWeb. Post conferences include (program chairs in parentheses)
