ILS Doctoral Research Forum 2021

Welcome to the Department of Information & Library Science Doctoral Research Forum 2021 (ILS-DRF 2021)!

ILS-DRF 2021 will be held on Nov. 12, 2021. The forum provides a great opportunity for doctoral students to present their ongoing research and discuss their ideas with peers and faculty members. To maximally reach out to the audience and keep us healthy, we finally decided to hold the event fully online through Zoom.

The Doctoral Research Forum is a yearly event of the ILS. It focuses on motivating Ph.D. students to participate in innovative research through the lens of information science, library science, social sciences, policy studies, and other disciplines. As evaluated by the previous doctoral program director Dr. Xiaozhong Liu, "our doctoral program is the heart of the ILS research community."

Presentation time will vary depending on the number of presentations. At the time of writing, we expect a maximum of 15 minutes to present, followed by 5 minutes QA.

Please contact us if you have any questions.
