On behalf of the planning committee, I am pleased to announce the 
Connections 2011 Conference scheduled for May 20-21, 2011 at the 
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Connections: The Great Lakes 
Information Science Conference is a conference for all Library and 
Information Science (LIS) doctoral students and candidates. This is 
student-focused conference that is intended to provide an opportunity 
for LIS doctoral students to share and exchange ideas and research. Open 
to all LIS doctoral students, the conference is organized and run by 
your fellow LIS doctoral students and is considered a forum for research 
at any stage. In keeping with the original intention of the conference, 
this year?s theme is Discourse and Illumination. An additional workshop 
entitled /Illuminating Your Research Agenda: A Workshop for Future 
Library and Information Science Faculty/ is offered during the 
conference through an Institute of Museum and Library Services grant and 
is free and open to those who register for the Connections 2011 conference.
