Call for papers: ISIC 2020: the Information Behaviour Conference

There is a call for papers for ISIC 2020: the Information Behaviour Conference, which takes place at the University of Pretoria, South Africa, 28 September - 2 October 2020.
"The ISIC conferences focus on people's contextualised interactions with information. We welcome interdisciplinary information research, taking influence from fields such as information science, information studies, library studies, communication studies, computer science, education, information management, information systems, management science, psychology, social psychology, sociology, and other disciplines. A common thread is the focus on contextualised information activities, expressed as 'information behaviour', 'information practice', 'information seeking', 'information experience' and others. For the 2020 conference, authors are invited to particularly consider issues of misinformation, and application of information behaviour research to practice. However, all theoretical and empirical work that falls within the broad scope of the conference is welcome. The conference includes full and short papers, panels, workshops, posters, and a doctoral workshop."
Deadline for submissions is 31 January 2020. For more details go to http://isic2020.co.za
