Informed and Interactive - Health Knowledge for all

Call for papers
The 2006 Conference Programme aims to reflect the innovative and multi-faceted nature of health information across all sectors and the contribution of information to patient care, medical research and training. We hope that there will be something to attract everyone as delegates and that the themes of the Conference will provide plenty of opportunities for you to participate as a presenter.

Authors are invited to submit abstracts.

We are very keen to hear from first time conference speakers and can promise a very supportive environment for that first step into the public arena.

We are looking for abstracts across 5 broad interlinking themes:

1. Expanding Roles
2. Information Literacy
3. Collaboration
4. Harnessing Information Technology
5. Evidence Based Librarianship

You can find more information below on the themes, with examples. However, these are just examples, so please do not hesitate to contribute with other subjects.

We are looking for THREE types of contribution (and please feel free to enter for more than one) so, hopefully something for everyone!

-Oral Presentations
-Posters
-Workshops. A chance to impart your specialist knowledge by leading small groups through discussions and activities. When submitting an abstract for this category please give a description of the subject and a short summary of content.

The closing date for abstract submission is Wednesday 30th November 2005.
