About the Symposium

The SILS Symposium on Information and Social Good is an annual mini-conference hosted at the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North Carolina. Each year, SILS undergraduate and masters students present work related to information, data, knowledge, or technology AND ethics, justice, equity, or society. This mini-conference offers an opportunity for SILS students to come together to present work that exemplifies our values as a community, and to engage the wider fields of information, data, and library science through in-person and online discussion.
