?The essence of Transition is in its name. It describes the era of change we are all living in. The Transition idea is about us all being an engaged, active part of that change."
--Transition Towns Movement
Transition is a grassroots movement that pulls on communities to improve local and global conditions in a sustainable way. Similarly, the KO community contributes to the greater good both locally within our own institutions and globally through interoperable systems, standards, and technologies. In the spirit of transition, the Fourth North American Symposium on Knowledge Organization (NASKO 2013) conference invites participants to come together to forge and strengthen the connections that will shape the future of knowledge organization.
Proposals for research papers, position papers, posters, unconference topics and a doctoral symposium are welcomed. Acceptable languages for conference submissions include English, French or Spanish. Graduate students are especially encouraged to submit proposals.
Topics to explore include, but are not limited to, the following:
? Theory of KO
? History of KO
? Legacy and emerging KOSs
? Epistemological status of KO
? Domain Analysis approach to KO
? New challenges in teaching KO
? KO research sustainability
? The future of KO
? Sociocultural studies of KO
*Proposal categories:*
*Research and Position Papers*: Proposals should include a title and be no more than 1500 words long.

methodologies are welcome.
*Posters*: Proposals should include a title and be no more than 650 words long.
*Unconference Sessions*: Proposals of topics for sessions driven by attendees. The unconference will include 30-minute breakout sessions with two or three topics per session, depending on attendance.
