Call for papers: iConference 2023

The next iSchools conference - iConference - will be held in two parts: 13-17 March 2023 online, and 27-29 March 2023 in Barcelona, Spain. It is organised by the iSchools at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, Monash University, and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The theme is: Normality, Virtuality and Physicality.
"Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose. (The more things change, the more they remain the same). This 19th century French epigram is widely used as shorthand to refer to the complexity and inherent contradictions of change. Superficially, things may look different, but are they really? What has changed, what has remained? The COVID-19 pandemic forced us to change the ways we work, communicate with others, and interact with information. The 2023 iConference will be an opportunity to reflect on the “new normal”: the new systems that were set up to communicate virtually during the pandemic and their lasting impact, the practices that have remained/will remain virtual after the end of lockdowns and travel restrictions, and the cases where face-to-face exchanges and access to physical documents remain important."
Submission deadline
for research papers and posters is 1 September 2022. Submission deadline for workshops, panels, student symposia, early career colloquium, doctoral colloquium is 1 October 2022. Website at https://ischools.org/iConference
