Bobcatsss is an annual symposium organised by European universities.
Each year two universities organise the symposium. Target groups of the
Bobcatsss Symposiums are information specialists, students, and
professors in the field of Library and Information Education and
Research, employees of libraries and information departments. 

The name BOBCATSSS is an acronym and describes the founding university
network. The letters stand for the first letters of city names of the
related universities: Budapest, Oslo, Barcelona, Copenhagen, Amsterdam,
Tampere, Stuttgart, Szombately, Sheffield. 

The symposia now operate under the umbrella of EUCLID (European
Association for Library and Information Education and Research). 

Next year the symposium will be devoted to information policy and the
EU. 

Topics will include, amongst others, the protection and security of
information; information policy concerning minorities; professional
information; multimedia and the organisation of information. For further
