Contributions

Contributions can be theoretical as well as technical and practical. Informative case studies are also welcome. Contributions are not limited with the main theme:  all types of papers, posters and presentations on information management in general are also welcome. The audience will be information professionals, data librarians, data curators, data managers, knowledge managers, researchers, information scientists, data scientists and computer engineers, among others. 

We accept extended abstracts (no less than 750 words) for full papers; short communications, Research in Progress reports, and posters on all aspects of Post-truth and also information management. Extended abstracts for student papers and posters are also welcome. Extended abstracts of PhD students to present the interim findings of their ongoing research will also be considered. Please use the template  to prepare your contributions and send them to us using the Conference Management Software (openconf) by 8 February, 2018. Templates and Conference Management System will be available via this page soon.

We also encourage session proposals. The coordinator of a special session will be responsible for the selection of papers (4-6 papers) and will chair the session. For session coordinators, registration fee will be waived.

The paper selection will follow a doubleblind review process. All submissions will be reviewed by scientific committee members. Accepted extended abstracts and proposals will appear in the “Book of Abstracts” to be published prior to the Symposium. Accepted extended abstracts may be developed as full papers. A short list of papers will be selected so that the revised and extended versions of these papers and posters will appear in the proceedings book.
