Invited scholars will be asked to reflect and consider the following questions:
• How do you see your work as bridging epistemic cultures and intellectual communities?
• What are the social and technological forces that enable and constrain connections between SI and cognate intellectual communities? 
• What are some of the ways in which we can begin to establish and maintain connections among SI and cognate epistemic cultures and intellectual communities? 
• What can a social informatics approach tell us about the nature of the boundaries among SI and cognate epistemic communities? 
• What are the challenges and opportunities of engaging in this type of SI work?
