You are warmly invited to submit your work for presentation at the LIDA (Libraries & Information Institutions in the Digital Age) biennial international conference to be held in Osijek, Croatia, May 24-27, 2023. The theme of the conference is Information Everywhere. We welcome submission of papers, panels, workshops, and posters that address critical and theoretical examinations of the theme; report current research and evidence-based approaches as well as present innovative approaches from the field and practitioner applications and perspectives. The LIDA conference is being planned to be fully in-person. If circumstances do not allow an on-ground conference to take place safely, LIDA will move to a virtual conference platform.

Sadly, we lost our longstanding LIDA Co-Director and dear friend, Dr. Ross J. Todd from Rutgers University, who passed away on March 30, 2022. We will celebrate Ross's life and research contributions during the LIDA 2023 conference and will invite all attendees to join us in his remembrance.

We would also like to inform you that earlier that week (May 23-24, 2023), an international conference Digital Transformation and Inclusiveness of the Higher Education Institutions in the Time of Crisis Situations, organized by Erasmus+ project DECriS, will take place in Osijek. We invite you to consider prolonging your stay in Osijek and take part in both events (at discounted registration rate).
