Doctoral Forum at CoLIS 8: The Eighth International Conference on Conceptions of Library and Information Science

Apologies for cross-posting
 
We invite doctoral students to a doctoral forum held in connection to the main conference CoLIS 8 in Copenhagen. The Doctoral Forum will take place on August 18, 2013, at the Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences at Lund University, Sweden, located 45 minutes by train from Copenhagen.

Date
18th of August 2013
 
Objective
The Doctoral Forum is intended to provide a setting for discussion of doctoral students' research projects with invited senior researchers and other participating students. The discussions will take place in a constructive spirit and a friendly atmosphere taking into consideration the diversity of contemporary LIS. A further objective is to act as a platform initiating international contacts between doctoral students as well as researchers that may enable future collaboration. We are investigating the possibility for forum participants to present their doctoral research as posters during the main conference in Copenhagen (optional).
