Everything Changes, Everything Stays the Same? Understanding Information Spaces

The 15th International Symposium of Information Science, a biannual
conference for scholars, researchers, professionals and students in
information science, takes place at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin from
13 to 15 March 2017. This year's theme of "Everything Changes, Everything
Stays the Same? Understanding Information Spaces" puts the dynamic of
the field of information and its applications in the center.

With the ongoing digitization and virtualization of goods, services and
living environments, information science reflects on the potential
changes within the information society. While some parts of the
community proclaim a revolutionary shift not only in the way we approach
information and information systems, but also in the way society
constitutes itself, others state that while the applications and
interfaces adapt to advances in information technology, the underlying
principles for human interactions with information remain the same.

In the ISI 2017 proceedings, contributions on the development of
innovative information spaces and services, on analyses of
human-computer interactions in physical or virtual information spaces
and on the role of information science and its research endeavors are
included.
