Web 2.0 and social computing are changing the way people use and perceive
the Internet as well as the ways they work and play. When users are no
longer simply consumers of information, and become active producers and
contributors, what are the implications for information science? How are
social computing and Web 2.0 trends affecting the work of information
professionals? What current research and applications are shaping future
directions? ASIS&T 2007 aims to bring together researchers and
practitioners from all aspects of information science, industry, academe,
and information professionals for lively discussions and debates about the
social aspects of information, about all things 2.0 (or looking to the
future) or higher.

TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS
Contributed papers
Contributed papers present original, recent, formally conducted research
and design projects, theoretical developments, or innovative practical
applications providing more general insight into an area of practice.
These are generally reports of completed or well-developed projects on
topics suitable for publication in scholarly and professional journals.
Contributed posters/short papers
Two types of posters/short papers are encouraged. Contributed research
posters present new and promising work or preliminary results of research
projects. Contributed ?best practices? posters present the results of
design projects, practical implementations of an organization's practices
or industry innovations. The content should clearly point out how the
application advances the state of the art and key challenges, as well as
potential impact on the participant's organization and/or practices in the
field. Especially welcome are submissions that discuss applications for
which a market analysis and/or evaluation of utility has been conducted.
Joint submissions from researchers and practitioners showing different
perspectives on a single issue are particularly encouraged. Posters are
expected to invite questions and discussion in a personal and less formal
setting.
Technical sessions and panels
Technical sessions and panels present topics for discussion such as
cutting-edge research and design, analyses of hot or emerging trends,
opinions on controversial issues, reports by practitioners on current
information science and technology projects, and contrasting viewpoints
from experts in complementary professional areas. Innovative formats that
involve audience participation are encouraged. These may include panels,
debates, forums, or case studies.
Pre-conference sessions
Pre-conference sessions present topics such as theoretical research,
management strategies, and new and innovative systems or products,
typically for purposes of concept development or continuing education.
Purely promotional programs are excluded. Formats may include seminars,
courses, workshops, and symposia. Sessions are scheduled for half to a
full day and require a registration fee beyond the regular conference fee.
