[KMDG-L] 5th Call - BOBCATSSS 2012

Apologies for cross-posting.

Please forward to interested parties.

 **************************

CALL FOR PAPERS - ONLY 4 DAYS LEFT UNTIL DEADLINE!

**************************

 

Dear Sir or Madam,

 

we are delighted to invite you to the 20th BOBCATSSS Symposium on information management taking place in Amsterdam from January 23 to January 25, 2012. The special topic will be "information in e-motion", containing the following subtopics:

 

E-Media in motion: Nowadays an increasing amount of data is only accessible through digital media. The devices being used to gain access to this data are developing rapidly.

 

Organization 2.0: The globalised world demands us to find new ways of collaborating, learning and working. As a result of that, we will have to find alternative ways and tools to record and archive our information.

 

My Information: Instead of using a personal diary a lot of people are sharing their thoughts online nowadays, on social networks, communities and blogs, hardly hiding their personal information. How can people keep track of other people seeing, using and sharing their content?

 

Access to Public Information: In a democratic process it is crucial that citizens have access to public information. How can that be made possible and how can people learn to use that information critically?

 

You are very welcome to take active part in the conference by contributing a speech, workshop or poster, whether you're a professional, teacher or student.

 

You can now register at our Conftool as a speaker or participant: https://www.conftool.pro/bobcatsss2012/ 

 

You can also register for the social program, consisting of a canal cruise and a welcome dinner, there.

 

For further information, please see our website http://www.bobcatsss2012.org/  

 

PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ABSTRACT UNTIL OCTOBER 1, 2011.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Amsterdam.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Ilka Schiele

BOBCATSSS 2012 Programme Team
