Chris Khoo and Na Jin Cheon. I'm looking for assessors to evaluate three types of summaries of research papers -- as part of my PhD project. The assessors should be PhD candidates, researchers or faculty in LIS or Computer Science. (PhD candidates should have passed their qualifying exams or proposal defense.) *The task* The task is to evaluate the quality of three summaries of research papers on a particular topic from JASIST, J. Doc. & JIS. Each task will take about 30 min.; each assessor will be requested to do 3 tasks (1.5 to 2 hours altogether). *Payment* I can offer a token payment of US$20 for the 3 tasks, to be paid to the assessor's Paypal account after receipt of the evaluations. *The topics* The summaries are on the following topics. You can indicate 3 topics as your preference - though I can't promise to assign you the topics of your choice. - Attribution theory - Citation analysis - Collaborative filtering - Creativity - Digital library users - Indexing - Information architecture - Information kiosks - Information needs - Information retrieval - Interfaces - Internet - Journal usage - Knowledge sharing - Language translation - Recommender systems - Relevance - Searchers, Searcher behaviour - Taxonomy - User behaviour - Web searching If you are able to help me with the evaluation, please drop an email to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> with some background information about yourself. The research results will be anonymized in any publication, and the identity of the assessors and their background information will be kept strictly confidential and will be available only to me and my supervisors. Thanks!

We hope to provide fresh perspectives from those entering our field, in both the United States and other countries. Interested faculty of graduate library and information science programs, who would like their students˙˙ ideas represented in this column, are invited to contact Nancy H.

The student group has journeyed from establishing the chapter's charter just a year ago to receiving recognition as the professional association's 2012 Student Chapter of the Year. "I was thrilled to learn that our student chapter won this national award, especially during its first year of existence" said Sarah Emmerson <http://slisweb.sjsu.edu/people/community-profile/sarah-emmerson> , who was the chair of the newly established student chapter. "We hit the ground running in August 2011 to make a success of the student chapter from its beginning." Emmerson worked with a team of fellow graduate students at SJSU SLIS to reactivate the student chapter during spring 2011, and then launch the newly chartered chapter in August 2011. In its inaugural year, the chapter created an impressive array of resources and virtual networking opportunities for SJSU SLIS students. Since the graduate programs <http://slisweb.sjsu.edu/prospective-students/choose-your-program> at SJSU SLIS are fully online, and SLIS students live across the continent, the ASIS&T Student Chapter held all its events online. They also created a range of tools to support ongoing interaction for its members, including a dedicated instant messaging channel, as well as a news feed and discussion forum that are integrated into the School's online learning management system. During the 2011-2012 academic year, the ASIS&T Student Chapter hosted 14 online events; published four newsletters; created a website <http://slisgroups.sjsu.edu/asistsc/> ; established social media presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube; and held 11 business meetings. The student chapter's membership grew to 68 students by the end of its first year, with more than 160 students following chapter news via its email discussion list and more than 360 "likes" on its Facebook page. Webinars <http://slisgroups.sjsu.edu/asistsc/?page_idD9> hosted by the student chapter cover topics ranging from digital asset management, to emerging technology trends, to careers in information architecture. Recordings are freely available on the student chapter website: http://slisgroups.sjsu.edu/asistsc "I'm so proud of the 2011-2012 board members <http://slisgroups.sjsu.edu/asistsc/?page_id4> who worked hard to make our student chapter a success," said Emmerson. "We met each new challenge head on and were fearless in our determination to create a dynamic and vibrant first year for the SJSU ASIS&T Student Chapter. I believe the invaluable contributions, support, and dedication of every board member helped us earn this award. They truly deserve this recognition." The award will be presented at this year's ASIS&T annual conference, which takes place on October 26-30, 2012, in Baltimore, Maryland. For more information about the ASIS&T Student Chapter at SJSU SLIS, please visit: http://slisgroups.sjsu.edu/asistsc/ In addition to ASIS&T, SJSU SLIS offers student chapters <http://slisweb.sjsu.edu/people/student-groups> of the American Library Association and the Society of American Archivists. Current SLIS students can also join the combined student and alumni group, SLISConnect. The San Jose State University School of Library and Information Science offers two fully online master's degrees, a fully online certificate program, and a doctoral program: Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS), Master of Archives and Records Administration (MARA), Post-Master's Certificate in Library and Information Science, and the San Jose Gateway PhD Program.

Please disseminate by colleagues, researchers, students, etc. Thanks a lot! ********************************************************************************** WorldCIST'13 The 2013 World Conference on Information Systems and Technologies March 27 - 30, Algarve, Portugal http://www.aisti.eu/worldcist13/ ********************************************************************************** SCOPE The 2013 World Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (WorldCIST'13: http://www.aisti.eu/worldcist13/) is a global forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results, experiences and concerns in the several perspectives of Information Systems and Technologies. We are pleased to invite you to submit your papers to WorldCISTI'13. All submissions will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity. THEMES Submitted papers should be related with one or more of the main themes proposed for the Conference: A) Information and Knowledge Management (IKM); B) Organizational Models and Information Systems (OMIS); C) Intelligent and Decision Support Systems (IDSS); D) Software Systems, Architectures, Applications and Tools (SSAAT); E) Computer Networks, Mobility and Pervasive Systems (CNMPS); F) Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS AND DECISIONS Four types of papers can be submitted: Full paper: Finished or consolidated R&D works, to be included in one of the Conference themes. These papers are assigned a 10-page limit. Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results, open to discussion. These papers are assigned a 7-page limit. Poster paper: Initial work with relevant ideas, open to discussion. These papers are assigned to a 4-page limit. Company paper: Companies' papers that show practical experience, R & D, tools, etc., focused on some topics of the conference. These papers are assigned to a 4-page limit. Submitted papers must comply with the format of Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series (see http://www.aisti.eu/worldcist13/springerformat.doc) be written in English, must not have been published before, not be under review for any other conference or publication and not include any information leading to the authors’ identification. Therefore, the authors’ names, affiliations and bibliographic references should not be included in the version for evaluation by the Program Committee. This information should only be included in the camera-ready version. All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at least two members of the Program Committee. Based on Program Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or accepted by the Conference Chairs. In the later case, it can be accepted as the type originally submitted or as another type. Thus, full papers can be accepted as short papers or poster papers only. Similarly, short papers can be accepted as poster papers only. In these cases, the authors will be allowed to maintain the original number of pages in the camera-ready version. The authors of accepted poster papers must also build and print a poster to be exhibited during the Conference. This poster must follow an A1 or A2 vertical format. The Conference includes Work Sessions where these posters are presented and orally discussed, with a 5 minute limit per poster. The authors of accepted full papers will have 15 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 5 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. The authors of accepted short papers and company papers will have 11 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 4 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. PUBLICATION AND INDEXING To ensure that a full paper, short paper, poster paper or company paper is published in the Proceedings, at least one of the authors must be fully registered by the 11th of January 2013, and the paper must comply with the suggested layout and page-limit. Additionally, all recommended changes must be addressed by the authors before they submit the camera-ready version. No more than one paper per registration will be published in the Conference Proceedings. An extra fee must be paid for publication of additional papers, with a maximum of two additional papers per registration. Full and short papers will be published in Proceedings by Springer, in Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series. Poster and company papers will be published in Proceedings by AISTI. Published full and short papers will be indexed by ISI, EI-Compendex, SCOPUS, DBLP and EBSCO, among others, and will be available in the SpringerLink Digital Library.

I am looking for faculty who are willing to spend 30 minutes at ALISE with individuals to give feedback on their CVs. I imagine giving feedback on how well the CV presents the applicant for a job, how you would view their CV if they were applying at your school, and general advice about how their current achievements situate them in terms of getting a first job, getting tenure, etc. I would expect that discussions would also touch on job hunting, interviewing, and career advice. I will try to get CVs sent to you ahead of time, and to assign individuals to you who seem a good fit. However, I hear there are likely to be drop-ins as well, so be prepared to receive last minute requests. The session is planned for Tuesday, January 22nd, 2013 from 1-4pm. Please let me know you are interested by sending me an email.

RUSA's online course “Introduction to Spatial Literacy and Online Mapping" is the perfect opportunity for librarians and library staff from public and academic libraries to gain a basic understanding of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology and learn about specific technologies they may be exposed to at the library. Registration for this course, which runs Nov. 5-25, ends on Thursday, Nov. 1.

Please forward this message!** If you've already taken this introductory course or have a good working knowledge of GIS and want to go further, consider enrolling in "Spatial Literacy II: Incorporation of Maps and GIS", which shows you how to harness these technologies for reference work, library projects, library administration, collection delivery, instruction, outreach and library promotion. The next session of this course begins Dec. 3. Wouldn't it be awesome if several of your staff could take this course and your library could reap the benefits in improved library services?

Taking place under the slogan: "Information Sciences between Virtual Infrastructure and Material Lifeworlds", the symposium will run from the 19th to the 22nd of March 2013 and seek to explore the bridging between traditional computer science topics and new approaches from interface design, activity theory and cognitive science. Keynote presentations from the likes of /Diane Sonnenwald,/ President of the symposium's US-American association partner, /Alfio M. Gliozzo/ from the IBM Watson Research Center and well-known technological futurologist /Alan N. Shapiro/ will introduce the key topics. The conference programme will comprise more than 10 topics blocks for which long and short papers, panel discussion, posters and student/doctoral thesis presentations can be submitted up until the 29th of October 2012 via the symposium website at www.isi2013.de. The latest research findings from the various fields of the information sciences in Germany and internationally will feature and highlight the progression the information sciences have undergone over the last two years, while an anonymous approval process conducted by proven national and international specialists guarantees a symposium of outstanding quality. English-language papers are welcome, and the conference languages are German and English. The highlight of the symposium has often been the awarding of the Gerhard Lustig Prize, named after one of the founders of information science in Germany, for the best student thesis on information science from 2011-- 2012. The selected papers will receive their accolades at a special evening event. To coincide with ISI2013, various information science events will take place at FH Potsdam immediately prior to and following the symposium: the annual conference of the German chapter of the International Society for Knowledge Organisation (ISKO), FH Potsdam's yearly I-Science Day organised in collaboration with the German Initiative for Network Information (DINI e.V.) and "frei<tag>", the BarCamp from library sciences e-journal LIBREAS. Further information on the conference can be found at www.isi2013.de.

She will giving a public research presentation during her visit: Monday, November 5, 2012 - 12:00 noon to 1:00 pm CST - RESEARCH PRESENTATION in Gorgas Library room 503 Understanding Information Behaviour in Palliative Care: Arguing for Exploring Diverse and Multiple Overlapping Contexts Because of rapid internet and media communication of research findings, consumers are confronted on a regular basis with new and/or changing medical evidence. This presents a challenge not only to health professionals seeking to deliver evidence-based clinical care, but also to individuals engaged in personal health management. Set in a context where evidence is explicitly evolving, this presentation explores self-positioning within consumer accounts of health information seeking. It also examines how individuals experience, interact with and integrate uncertain health information mediated by the many formal and informal sources which consumers encounter or seek as they make health decisions. Findings have implications for shared patient-clinician decision making and health literacy. BB Collaborate session for participating in this Colloquium from a distance: http://tinyurl.com/9h697lk.
