CANCELLED: Building Bridges: exploring interdisciplinary intersections between fandom, fan studies, and library and information science.
Please note, this event has now been cancelled and will be rearranged in due course.
Series: CityLIS Research Symposium
This free, one day event is open to anyone with an interest in the connections between fandom, fan studies, and library & information science. The symposium will contribute to a nascent interdisciplinary dialogue, by bringing together scholars from fan studies, LIS and beyond, to find commonalities, inspire new conversations, reveal hidden and unexpected intersections, and suggest new methodological approaches that will enrich the current discourse of fandom and fan practice.
The CityLIS FanStudies Project pulls together previous work we have undertaken along the boundary of fanstudies and LIS, and hopes to create a framework for future collaboration and research.
