The WebDB workshop has been held twelve times so far: the first WebDB workshop was collocated with EDBT 1998, whereas the other eleven WebDB workshop editions were co-located with the annual SIGMOD/PODS conference. WebDB provides a forum in which researchers, theoreticians, and practitioners can share their insights on problems and solutions at the intersection of data management and the Web. WebDB has high impact and has been a forum in which a number of seminal papers have been presented. We will continue WebDB in this spirit of previous years.
Since 2002, the workshop always had a theme. This year WebDB will focus on Quality of Web Data and on Linked Data, but papers on all aspects of the Web and Databases will be solicited.
