The European Chapter (EC) <https://www.asist.org/chapters/europe/> and European Student Chapter (ESC) of the Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T), and the ERC-funded research project CAPTURE <https://www.abm.uu.se/forskning/pagaende-forskningsprojekt/capture/> seek your contributions to a joint in-person and online conference on *Information Science Perspectives to Documenting Processes and Practices* *. The Basics!* - *Conference date**:* Tuesday 20th June to Wednesday 21st, 2023, 09:00-16.00 CET (which is e.g. 08:00-15:00 BST, 03:00 - 10:00 EST, your time zone <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Information+Science+Trends+%28IST%29%3A+Processes+and+practices&iso=20230620T09&p1=1376> ). - In-person sessions in Uppsala, Sweden: 20 June 09:00-12:00 CET and 21 June 13:00-16:00 CET - Online sessions (Zoom): 20 June 13:00-16;00 CET and 21 June 09:00-12:00 CET with in-person attendance in Uppsala - *Deadline for submitting proposals* (abstract of 400-750 words): *31st March 2023.* - *Submissions:* At EasyChair <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ist23> including uploading a completed abstract template https://tinyurl.com/IST23cfp - *Registration: *at the ASIS&T web <https://associationforinformationscienceandtechnologyasist.growthzoneapp.com/ap/Events/Register/XpjJBe2p?sourceTypeId=Website&mode=Attendee> *(*tinyurl.com/26hjdabp) We *invite researchers, practitioners and students* to submit abstracts for talks (15 minutes presentation + discussion time). Students can also submit proposals for posters (10 minute presentation of their poster). We welcome proposals both from ASIS&T members, and from non-members. The revised abstracts will be published on Zenodo <https://zenodo.org/communities/information_science_trends/?page=1&size=20>, an online repository for research outputs. Each conference day will consist of a keynote, online talks with discussions, opportunities for networking, and a student poster session. *The programme:* The purpose of the hybrid format is to enable as wide participation as possible, across geographical boundaries and for researchers and practitioners alike, in the information science community. Each of the conference days will consist of an onsite half-day, also broadcasted via Zoom, and a Zoom only half-day. A physical space that can be used to join the Zoom sessions will be provided to onsite participants in Uppsala. Presentations will be recorded and made available for the registered participants. For those attending on Zoom, there will be networking opportunities between sessions. Those attending in Uppsala will be offered additional social events in the evening of June 20th and 21st.

"Processes and practices" is a theme open to your interpretation, but this gives some ideas about what we have in mind: - documenting processes and practices, such as - research, - work, such as: - analysis, - coding or programming (e.g. Knowledge Organisation System (KOS)), - procedures of care, e.g. care of children, elderly care, medical care, therapeutics, care of participants and customers - leisure, e. g. sef-tracking behaviors, personal memory making - … - for different purposes - data reuse - modeling and prognostics - information management - enabling cooperative and collaborative work, e.g. aligning care processes - personal information management (PIM) - digital library development - data/research impact evaluations - information seeking and use - … - from different perspectives - Information behaviour and practices (e.g. practices of documenting practices and processes; implications to IBP etc.) - Data, information and knowledge management, including actions taken to meet Open Science objectives and FAIR data management - (Information) literacies (e.g. competences of documenting and understanding documentation etc.) - … - ethical aspects of documenting practices and processes - ethical considerations in the reuse of data - ethical data governance - … We interpret *Information Science* broadly to include all kinds of information experience and information behaviour, information retrieval, data science, information literacy, information organisation, and ways of knowing. If you are not sure whether your idea fits in with our theme do please email the conference co-chairs (see emails below). Submission requirements For both presentations and posters, we request an informative, structured abstract (400-750 words including references in APA format, and written in English). You will find our template at https://tinyurl.com/IST23cfp. You must submit via *Easychair*: <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ist23>. All abstracts will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. All presenters must be registered for the conference (see below. *Submissions are due on:* *31st March 2023.* If your submissions is accepted, we require you to upload your abstract with a CC-BY 4.0 International License <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.de> at Zenodo <https://zenodo.org/communities/information_science_trends/?page=1&size=20>(community: Information Science Trends - ASIS&T European Chapter Series <https://zenodo.org/communities/information_science_trends/?page=1&size=20>) Opportunities for all researchers and practitioners You may submit proposals for presentations (presentation of 15 minutes + 5 minutes for questions).

Opportunities for students Students may either submit presentation proposals (see above) and/or posters.* All posters will be entered in a Best Poster competition*. Posters will be judged by the conference committee based on clarity of communication and innovative presentation. Poster can be presented online or in-person. Students are defined as BA/BSc, MA/MSc, or PhD students within Information Science (including related areas such as Data Science and Information Management). Please submit an informative, structured abstract and choose the submission type "poster" in the submission form. The conference will be a hybrid event, using Zoom. Please indicate whether you will be attending on site or on Zoom only. Presenters of the posters at the conference may use a pdf, a video (playable from a publicly-accessible platform such as Youtube) or a very short slide show.

Our first event in Hamburg (April, 2019) focused on the topic Search Engines and Information Retrieval <https://www.asist.org/2019/03/22/information-science-trends-search-engines-and-information-retrieval/>. Our second, online, event focused on Health Information Behaviour <https://www.asist.org/2020/04/14/67651/> (June, 2020), our third on *Information Science Research During COVID-19 and Post-Pandemic Opportunitie*s (June 2021), and our fourth on Untold Stories <https://community.asist.org/discussion/15th-to-17th-june-online-conference-untold-stories-in-information-science> (June 2022); The latter 3 conferences were each awarded the ASIS&T Chapter Event of the Year <https://www.asist.org/programs-services/awards-honors/ceoy/ceoy-recipients/>. Our events provide an opportunity to network and share ideas and interests from the different fields of information science and related disciplines. *The CAPTURE* *project* CApturing Paradata for documenTing data creation and Use for the REsearch of the future (CAPTURE). We might have enough data about data, but not a good enough understanding of how the data came about. CAPTURE investigates what information about the creation and use of research data (that is, paradata) is needed and how to capture enough of that information to make the data reusable in the future. The wickedness of the problem lies in the practical impossibility of documenting and keeping everything, and the difficulty to determine how to capture just enough. The empirical focus of CAPTURE is archaeological and cultural heritage data, which stands out by its extreme heterogeneity and rapid accumulation due to the scale of ongoing development-led archaeological fieldwork. Within and beyond this specific context, CAPTURE develops an in-depth understanding of how paradata is being created and used today and elicits methods for capturing paradata. CAPTURE tests new methods in field trials and synthesises the findings in a reference model to inform the capturing of paradata. Enabling data-intensive research using heterogeneous research data stemming from diverse origins. The project is directed by Professor Isto Huvila.
