Time: October 21-25 (lectures and literature seminars) and December 11-13 (paper seminars)

The content of this doctoral study course is designed to all Nordic and Baltic library and information science (LIS) doctoral students, but also suitable for doctoral students in LIS in any other part of the world or in a related research area.

The emphasis lay on three main areas: Literature and Users; Information and Society; Knowledge Organization and Information Retrieval. The course is biased towards recent international research in English. However, students may enrich the course with literature in other languages.
