Theme: The Warp & Weft of Knowledge: Information Threads Connecting Disciplines, Identities, and Perspectives

The Canadian Association for Information Science (CAIS) annual conference will be held as part of Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences 2017 at Ryerson University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (http://congress2017.ca/).

Congress’s theme of critical reflection, cross-collaboration, and interdisciplinarity inspired the theme for the CAIS conference. The conference theme The Warp & Weft of Knowledge: Information Threads Connecting Disciplines, Identities and Perspectives reflects the broad cross-disciplinary nature of information science. Along with Canada’s 150th anniversary we also celebrate our past accomplishments and our hopes for the future. We hope CAIS 2017 will explore the interdisciplinarity of information studies, build on past research, and forge new paths for the future.
