This exciting international conference has grown out of an increasing
interest in using the best available evidence to improve library and
information practice in all types of libraries. Take the opportunity to
experience a conference with high quality papers, dynamic discussions
and workshops, and at the same time enjoy the “white nights” of the
Nordic summer. The timing of the conference is in the midst of the
summer season, and we hope for warm and sunny days.
As a tourist city Stockholm has excellent possibilities for cultural as
well as outdoor experiences. Situated where Lake Mälaren meets the
Baltic Sea, Stockholm is built on several islands, and is often called
Venice of the North. Whether you enjoy a maritime environment or the
woods, nature is never far away in the capital of Sweden.
