[CODE4LIB] FW: 2018 ASIS Annual Meeting Call for Proposals

[Stephan Addo]

The 81st Annual Meeting of the Association for Information Science and 
Technology

November 9-14, 2018, Vancouver, Canada

BUILDING AN ETHICAL AND SUSTAINABLE INFORMATION FUTURE WITH EMERGING 
TECHNOLOGIES

This meeting will focus the creative and analytical energies of the ASIS 
community on the dramatic near horizon socio-technical shifts expected due to 
rapid developments in technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data 
analytics, virtual and augmented reality, and embedded, ubiquitous computing. 
The opportunities afforded by these technologies are enormous, as are the 
challenges of ensuring that ethical and human-centered perspectives, including 
sustainability, privacy, human agency and equity, are incorporated into their 
design and use.  As interdisciplinary information science and technology 
researchers and practitioners, with an 80 year tradition of studying and 
working in this rapidly evolving field, we are uniquely situated to steward and 
mediate this shift.  ASIS 2018 will provide an opportunity to learn from one 
another and from leading experts in these emerging technologies; to discuss, 
critique and pose the much-needed questions; and to share perspectives grounded 
in our own research and practice that intersect with and provide context for 
current developments.

The ASIS Annual Meeting is a premier, peer-reviewed international conference 
that gathers scholars and practitioners from around the globe to share 
research, innovations, and insights regarding the role of information and 
technology in the lives of individuals, organizations and communities.

We invite papers, posters and visual presentations, panel and workshop 
submissions that focus on the conference theme, as well as work that reflects 
the broader mandate of ASIS, regarding the creation, representation, storage, 
access, dissemination and use of information, media and records, and the 
systems, tools, and technologies associated with these processes.  The 
conference embraces plurality in methods and theories, and encompasses 
research, development and practice from a broad spectrum of domains, as 
encapsulated in ASIS's many special interest groups (SIGs).

We are pleased to announce that the ASIS 2018 Proceedings will be published 
by John Wiley & Sons and will be indexed and accessible via multiple 
international venues. Please note that at least one of the authors must 
register for the conference in order for a paper to be accepted and published 
in the proceedings.
