Hello Information Community,

We are extremely pleased to announce the fifth volume of the Faculty of
Information Quarterly and the launch of our second year:

Vol 2, No 1 (2009): Winter 2009 <https://fiq.ischool.utoronto.ca/>

The aim of the journal is to promote conversation within the world of
Information practice and study, including researchers, students and
professionals in the field. What is information, where is, how does it
effect us, what is its potential?

We strongly believe that a forum is needed to explore and share what is
happening in the field, and that such a conversation requires a more of an
open mind than traditional publications allow. Over the past year we have
solidified the journal as a space for for the voices of emerging and
established scholars and practitioners in diverse Information fields. We are
committed to meeting the challenges and redefining many of the traditional
understandings of the study of information.

This current issue of the journal reflects broad interdisciplinary
engagement and fresh critical perspectives that will enrich the conversation
within and beyond the field. The wide range of issues is wide and
compelling.

Call for submissions:

We believe the content of this volume will engage you and trust you will
view F/IQ a place to revisit and contribute to in the months and years
ahead. The editorial team can be contacted at [log in to unmask] We are
