There is a call for proposals for the 14th iConference, to be held in Washington, USA, March 31–April 3 2019. It is hosted by the University of Maryland, College Park in collaboration with Syracuse University and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. "Scholars, professionals, and researchers who share an interest in current critical information issues will celebrate the theme “inform. include. inspire.” We invite participants to discuss what it means to inform in the 21st century, to consider who is included in and excluded from the information revolution, and to question how we can best inspire individuals and organizations to use information for good in our rapidly-changing knowledge society. As we convene in the U.S. Capital, we will explore how we can inform, include, and inspire national and international policies and conversations related to technology." Options include papers, workshops, "sessions for interaction and engagement (SIE)", posters etc. , There is also a Doctoral Student Colloquium (DC) and Early Career Colloquium (ECC).
Submission opens on June 25 2018. Deadlines are: Papers, Workshops, Posters, DC, ECC: September 10, 2018; SIE, Blue Sky, Undergraduate Symposium, iSchools Partnerships and Practices, Doctoral Dissertation Award: October 1, 2018.
