(Crystal City, Virginia), USA | Oct. 27-Nov 1, 2017 Twenty seventeen (2017) is a special year for the Association for Information Science & Technology (ASIS&T) as we are reaching an 80-year milestone of our establishment. The theme of ASIS&T 2017 is focused 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. The ASIS&T Annual Meeting is a premier, peer-reviewed international conference that gathers scholars and practitioners from around the globe to share research, innovations, and insights regarding how information and technology mediate the creation and use of knowledge within and across cultures and enhance lives. *?????????**?* Central focus for the workshop panels are the development of the Chinese information concept and its manifestation in documentation and library science, information science, and information philosophy. Some researchers of note (not intending to be exclusive in any way) include QIAN XUESEN, ZHONG YIXIN, WU KUN, and YAN XUESHAN, among others.

I participated in this Symposium next year, and I highly recomment it. --- *Call for Proposals* HCI Across Borders Symposium in Denver (CO, USA) at CHI 2017 6th-7th May, 2017 *_About the Workshop _* The Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) community at CHI is increasingly embracing research being performed on topics and in regions that have been understudied in the past. To promote these efforts, the Development Consortium Workshop titled *HCI Across Borders* was held at CHI 2016 in San Jose. With support from SIGCHI and in collaboration with Facebook and Google, it was attended by 70+ researchers from 20 countries across the globe, with some of these countries being represented at CHI for the first time. The goal of this Consortium was to build community and invite collaborations /across borders/ on themes of interest to the participants ? those actively involved in international HCI projects, with most of them conducting research in understudied areas and with underrepresented individuals and communities across the world. This year marks another milestone as this event has grown to be a CHI Symposium. Our goal is to build on the efforts from the Development Consortium at CHI 2016 and to grow the community working in the area of HCI Across Borders (HCIxB), by providing an opportunity for interested researchers to come together as a community, improve the visibility of their work, and to bring greater awareness to the challenges that plague international research, particularly research that takes place in resource-constrained settings, to the larger HCI community. *_Participation_* We solicit participation from HCI researchers and practitioners across the globe who work with underserved, underrepresented, and/or under-resourced communities. We particularly invite participants who are keen to explore collaborations across borders. ?Borders?, in this context, include geographic boundaries, but also boundaries of other kinds, such as disciplines, methodologies, ideologies, and more. Research areas of focus can be diverse, including but not limited to learning, global health, crisis informatics, civic engagement, mobile banking, etc. While this is no exhaustive list, examples of topics/themes of submission might include: * Leveraging participatory design and co-design approaches * Factoring cultural sensitivities in the design of new technologies and/or HCI methods * Designing to accommodate power differentials in communities * Devising innovative techniques for engaging new technology users * Designing for sustainability * Studying the intersection of HCI and the UN?s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) * And more! These are examples of projects that our Symposium might include, as the Consortium did last year : * Emotional Wellbeing: Technology for Mental Health in Developing Countries * HCI, Forced Migration & Refugees: Collaborations across Borders and Fields * ICT Intervention for Agricultural Development: Exploring Prospects for Pakistani Farmers * Cuba Intercambio: Cultural and Information Exchange for Cuba * Online Learning Across Diverse Low-Resource Indian Contexts * Cognitive Modeling for Illiteracy Eradication * Mobile Technology-Based Supports for Prenatal Care Among the Ng?be in Panama *_Submissions _* Please submit a proposal (3-5 pages in the CHI Extended Abstracts format) *starting now *and before *April 15th, 2017*. We would appreciate early submissions. You will receive a decision within 15 days of submitting so you can plan your registration and travels accordingly. All submissions will be reviewed by the organizers and a program committee. They will be selected in accordance with their potential to contribute to the Symposium and to foster discussion. Accepted submissions will be available on our website before the conference. Authors of accepted submissions will also be invited to present posters of their proposals at CHI (although not mandatory). Please submit your PDFs at https://hcixb17.hotcrp.com/. Please note that we will accept contributions until the number of available attendees is reached, which may be before the ultimate deadline. *_Bursaries _* We are working on obtaining funding to pay travel expenses (or at least a portion thereof) for attendees in need. Please note that CHI guidelines require at least one author of each accepted submission to attend and be registered for the Symposium. *_Organizers_* Neha Kumar, Georgia Tech (USA) Susan Dray, Dray & Associates (USA) Christian Sturm, Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (Germany) Nithya Sambasivan, Google (USA) Laura S.
