Theme: Perspectives on Access to Information

We are pleased to announce that the School of Library, Archival and Information Studies, the iSchool at UBC, will hold its 6th Annual Research Day on Friday, March 11th, 2016, in the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre, Golden Jubilee Room. Research Day showcases the contributions of the iSchool students and faculty working at the intersections of archival, information, library and children’s literature studies.

This year, Research Day will focus broadly on perspectives on providing access to analogue and digital cultural heritage, records and information, considering the many and various factors that work to enable and/or constrain access in different contexts, and the potential and challenge of new access environments.

11:00 – 12:00: Keynote: Peter Hirtle – The Curator and Copyright
12:00 – 13:30: Short Talks by iSchool students and faculty
13:30 – 15:00: Posters and Demos presented by iSchool students and faculty

We look forward to welcoming you for a day of engaging and inspiring short talks, conversations, and poster presentations. You can RSVP to this free event at: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/ischool-at-ubcs-research-day-2016-tickets-19846745149
