Dear all,

Welcome to the first seminar in the ReSource international seminar series at 15.00-16.00, Thursday 19^th October in the following Zoom room: https://hb-se.zoom.us/j/68120125091

The seminar series is organised twice per semester together with the Faculty of Information and Media Studies (FIMS), Western University, Canada and the School of Media, Creative Arts and Social Inquiry, Curtin University, Perth, Australia.

This first seminar involves a panel discussion on what it means to be an LIS PhD student in different parts of the world. Paulette Rothbauer (Associate Professor at FIMS), Amber Matthews (PhD student at FIMS), Joacim Hansson (Professor at Linnaeus University), and Amalia Juneström (Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University who successfully defended her PhD thesis last year) will discuss the similarities and differences between LIS PhD programmes in Sweden and Canada. The seminar is relevant for anyone interested in international perspectives on LIS doctoral education, and in particular for PhD students who are interested in what their colleagues’ PhD programmes look like around the world.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about the seminar.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Kind regards,

Anna
