February 8 - 11, 2011

***PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: August 30, 2010***

Greetings to academics interested in ICTD, public-access computing, and
community informatics!

We invite you to participate in the sixth annual conference sponsored by the
iCaucus, a growing association of over 25 schools, faculties, and colleges
in North America, Europe, and Asia that focus on Information. The
iConference gathers researchers and professionals who share the goal of
making a difference through the study of people, information, and
technology. Under the banner "Inspiration - Integrity - Intrepidity" we seek
to showcase diversity in research interests and approaches, and demonstrate
how the field creates leadership and impact on a global scale.

The four days will include peer-reviewed papers, posters, and alternative
events. Also being organized is a Doctoral Student Colloquium and a Junior
Faculty & Postdoc Colloquium, popular venues at past iConferences. Papers
and poster abstracts will be published in the ACM Digital Library. The aim
is to build community and promote and share excellence in research on
information challenges and opportunities.

We have identified cross-cutting themes: social inclusion, context,
materiality, personalization, memory. The 2011 iConference should be an
exceptional venue for sharing insights and collaborating with others who
share your passion and research interests. For more information on the range
of topics visit the iConference web site, which includes more details and
links to past iConferences. But don't feel constrained — this is a dynamic
field that you will help shape!

The conference will be held at Seattle's Renaissance Hotel. The local host
is the University of Washington Information School.
