Abstract

As we now traditionally do each year, we will provide extensive coverage of the 2016 ASIS&T Annual Meeting in the February/March 2017 issue of the Bulletin. At that time, we will include both photographic and substantive coverage of many of the events, the sessions, the parties and the fellowship.

But we'll whet your appetite in this issue with the complete list of 2016 ASIS&T Annual Award winners, as well as the acceptance speech given by Peter Ingwersen in accepting the prestigious ASIS&T Award of Merit. More details and photographs of the awards ceremony will be provided in the next issue.

When one Annual Meeting concludes, planning for the next is already well underway. In 2017, our Annual Meeting returns to the United States with plans to meet in suburban Washington, DC, and to celebrate the 80th anniversary of our Association. Committees are already hard at work seeking submissions for all aspects of the technical program, suggestions for pre- and post-conference undertakings and ideas for social events and new ways to engage attendees in networking and team-building activities. Mark your calendars for October 27-November 1, 2017, and plan to join us in Crystal City, Virginia.

The theme for the 2017 Annual Meeting is Diversity of Engagement: Connecting People and Information in the Physical and Virtual Worlds, focusing on the diverse ways in which people from different backgrounds, cultures and disciplines forge connections with each other, discover and use information and engage with technology. We will address the opportunities and challenges of navigating through physical and digital/virtual realm with computers, tablets or smartphones to interact in work and everyday activities. Within this information environment, there also are those who choose to disengage, and those who have no access to or knowledge of technology, widening the digital divide. ASIS&T 2017 will provide an interactive platform for exploration of these complex and rapidly changing technological and socio-cultural developments.

As always, the conference committees welcome contributions from all areas of information science and technology. For more information about submission ideas, formats and deadlines, please visit the ASIS&T website at www.asist.org.

ASIS&T年会报道:回顾展望未来
按照惯例,我们将在2017年2月/ 3月的《公报》上对2016年asist年会进行广泛报道。届时,我们将包括许多活动、会议、聚会和奖学金的摄影和实质性报道。但我们将在这一期中为您提供2016年ASIS&T年度奖的完整获奖者名单,以及Peter Ingwersen在接受享有盛誉的ASIS&T优秀奖时的获奖致辞。有关颁奖典礼的详情及照片将于下期刊登。当一届年会结束时,下一届年会的筹备工作就已经开始了。2017年,我们的年会将回到美国,计划在华盛顿郊区举行会议,庆祝我们协会成立80周年。委员会已经在努力工作,为技术方案的各个方面征求意见,为会前和会后的工作提出建议,为社交活动和吸引与会者参与网络和团队建设活动的新方法提出建议。将您的日历标记为2017年10月27日至11月1日,并计划在弗吉尼亚州水晶城加入我们。2017年年会的主题是“参与的多样性:在物理和虚拟世界中连接人与信息”,重点关注来自不同背景、文化和学科的人们彼此建立联系、发现和使用信息以及参与技术的各种方式。我们将解决通过计算机、平板电脑或智能手机在工作和日常活动中进行交互的物理和数字/虚拟领域导航的机遇和挑战。在这种信息环境中,也有一些人选择不参与,也有一些人无法接触或了解技术,从而扩大了数字鸿沟。ASIS&T 2017将为探索这些复杂和快速变化的技术和社会文化发展提供一个互动平台。一如既往,会议委员会欢迎来自信息科学和技术各个领域的贡献。欲了解更多有关提交想法、格式和截止日期的信息,请访问ASIS&T网站www.asist.org。
