All papers from ARCC 2019 can be accessed on the ARCC Conference Repository.  The repository is publicly available and is indexed by OCLC WorldCat and Google Scholar in an OAI compliant database. This ensures that researchers affiliated with ARCC have significant exposure of their work.

The ARCC conference awards are determined through a two-stage process. First, the results of the double-blind peer review are used to identify a number of short-listed papers. Then a committee of experts representing the range of research topics and approaches of ARCC members selects the award recipient. This year’s committee included: Philip Plowright, Editor-in-Chief of ENQ, the ARCC Journal and Professor of Architecture, Lawrence Technological University, Erin Moore, Head of the School of Architecture & Environment, and Associate Professor, University of Oregon, and Adil Sharag-Eldin, Associate Professor of Architecture, Kent State University.
