Opening keynote presented by Professor Blaise Cronin, Rudy Professor of Information Science, Indiana University.
In his keynote presentation Professor Cronin will provide a brief historical overview of LIS research before critically reviewing competence and practice in the field. He will identify a number of deficiencies, including lack of cumulation, ^narcissism of minor differences, ̄ false antinomies, failure to scale, and redundancy. At the same time, he will highlight several trends that may (or may not) be seen as having potentially positive downstream effects: growth in the number of faculty from disciplines other than LIS populating LIS departments, increasing rigour and diversity of LIS research programs, quantifiable growth in the export of ideas from LIS to other disciplines, greater receptivity of LIS research to outsider literature. He will consider social media both as a means of fostering research collaboration and as a subject warranting significant research attention in its own right. He will conclude by considering a few domains in which LIS researchers may be able to establish a stronger presence.
The connecting machine. Librarians' mission after the Fourth revolutionMatilde Fontanin

Presentation given at the IFLA Reference and Information Services Section virtual event: Enabling information ethics in a technologically saturated world - 7 Oct 2020 -
https://www.ifla.org/ES/node/93288
We are made of information, it shapes our lives and reality. After the Fourth revolution (Floridi, 2014) our self is moulded also by data, much involuntarily generated when we use technology.
The ethical issues involved in information sharing and using affect its evaluation, fair use, privacy, openness. Educating users to awareness has always been a mission of the Reference and Information services librarians, pursuing the goal of fostering an informed and active citizenship also envisioned by the Millennium Development Goals and the UNESCO Media and Information Literacy strategy.
The same technology generating information can help govern it, disclose science to citizens, foster social justice, yet it also stimulates the spread of fake news and misinformation.
Machines do not act of their own will, they must be governed to guarantee a Human use of human beings (Wiener, 1950), this demands a multidisciplinary effort, as Wiener demonstrated.
Raising citizens¨ awareness on the way algorithms work requires bridging differences in mathematicians, computer scientists, psychologists, philosophers, sociologists, economists and more: librarians and digital humanists could step in as connectors.
In 1948, upon reviewing Wiener¨s Cybernetics, Dominique Dubarle provocatively advocated the advent of a ^machine ┐ gouverner ̄, which might do better than inept politicians. Nowadays, society is facing the problem of self-driving cars: for the first time in history, a ^Moral machine ̄ (Awad et al., 2019) will be enabled to decide on people¨s lives. Some lessons could be learnt from the interdisciplinary approach of the past.
This paper will review literature, consider recent facts and offer some proposals for the renewed ethical commitment of the digital humanist and the librarian facing new technologies and bearing in mind the IFLA Code of Ethics for Librarians and other Information Workers.

This document discusses several key ideas related to information architecture and understanding systems. It addresses issues like fragmentation, findability, and the importance of categories and connections in cognition. It also discusses concepts like the relationship between information and culture, the limits of information, and how information architects create environments for understanding through nodes and links. Overall, the document examines the nature of information in systems and how to design and manage information architecture.
The document discusses several key challenges for libraries and information architecture:
1. Users have difficulty finding what they need on library websites due to fragmentation and lack of clear organization.
2. Most users do not enter library websites directly but through search engines, leaving them confused by what they find.
3. As a result, many potential users never utilize library resources because they are not easily findable.
The document discusses the architecture of understanding and information architecture. It provides several quotes and concepts related to this topic. In 3 sentences:

This document discusses several key topics related to information architecture and understanding systems. It addresses issues like fragmentation in websites, problems with findability of resources, and the importance of understanding the nature of information in systems. It also discusses concepts like categories, connections, consequences, and culture as they relate to information and understanding. Throughout the document there are various quotes about topics like systems thinking, planning, and the role of the information architect.
The document discusses several key topics related to understanding systems and information architecture, including categories and connections, space and time, culture and limits. It explores how systems happen simultaneously and non-linearly, the relationship between information and culture, and different levels of culture from visible structures to underlying assumptions. Quotes touch on topics like the benefits and limits of information, and how buildings and culture shape us over time.
The document discusses several key challenges facing large information systems like the Library of Congress, including fragmentation, findability, and complexity. It notes that users struggle to know which sites to visit for different purposes or find what they need from the home page. Even worse, most potential users never access the Library's resources because they are not easily findable. The document advocates mapping systems and contexts and sharing those maps in order to create environments for understanding.
The document discusses several key challenges for users of the Library of Congress:
1) Fragmentation across multiple sites and domains causes confusion for users about where to find different resources.
2) Users have difficulty finding what they need from the home page or when entering via search/deep links.
3) Many potential users never access the Library's resources because they are not easily findable.
The document argues that improving findability and reducing fragmentation across the Library's online presence would help more users access and utilize its resources.

1) Israeli researchers recorded bat sonar calls during hunting and found that bats "connect" through sonar to increase chances of finding food. When one bat locates insects, others nearby can hear and locate the insects from 100 meters away.
2) Researchers at the University of Maryland developed robots that can teach themselves tasks like cooking by watching instructional videos online. The robots analyze steps and string behaviors together to accomplish goals, without directly copying human motions.
3) An Israeli organization called Life's Door held a retreat bringing together women of various religious and ethnic backgrounds who are battling cancer. Participants overcame divisions and found shared experiences, with some forming friendships. The retreat aimed to empower women and promote better cancer treatment.

Building a Multiplatform SDKMAN in JavaFX.pdfJago de Vreede
?
SDKMAN is one of the most popular ways to install/upgrade Java or other build tooling on your system. It works great from the command line, but what if you could bring its power to a graphical interface? And what if it worked seamlessly on Windows too? In this talk, we will use SDKMAN as an example of how to build a multiplatform native application using JavaFX for the UI and GraalVM to compile native images. We will dive into the process of creating native apps with GraalVM, distributing them with GitHub, and identifying some limitations of native Java applications. Plus, we¨ll explore alternative methods for shipping native apps across platforms. By the end of this session, you will have practical insights on how to build and distribute native apps with or without JavaFX.
