ISKO UK Event, London, 26 June - Agenda for Information Retrieval

We would like to invite you to an open meeting of the British Chapter of
International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO UK) entitled
"Agenda for Information Retrieval" in London,

26th June 2008 15:00 - 19:00 (registration starts 14:30).

Venue: University College London, Engineering Faculty, Roberts Building G06

Cost: 10 GBP (ISKO UK members free)

Searching, browsing, and other routes to information are no longer the
preserve of information professionals; they are on every desktop, at the
fingertips of almost anybody. “Search” has become part of the everyday
lifestyle.

Three eminent speakers Brian Vickery, Stephen Robertson and Ian Rowlands
will address the issues that have dominated the information retrieval
agenda since the 1950s, and still present challenges and opportunities
for the future.

This ISKO UK event is organized in cooperation with UCL's School of
Library, Archive and Information Studies (SLAIS).
