The European Chapter of ASIS was established in 1993, turning the North
European Chapter (which existed before) into a pan-european chapter.
ASIS-EC aims to promote the exchange of research and good practice amongst
L&IS professionals. This is particularly important since European
L&IS institutions, practice and historical traditions differ significantly
from their North-American counterparts. We feel that one of the duties
of the chapter is precisely the promotion of ideas and research across
national borders within Europe, and within the ASIS membership worldwide.
We are therefore active in fostering ASIS-EC sponsored sessions at major
European conferences. We have hosted sessions in DOCUMAT, Spain, NORD-IO,
Norway and LIDA in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Our yearly session at IOLIM in
London is becoming a tradition amongst our members.
Please check our site regularly for conference announcements in Europe,
links to European libraries, and other news related to Library and Information
Science and Technology in Europe. Please submit any items of interest
to the information architect.
