Hi Tom, Thanks so much for sending this! The conference looks really interesting. I just forwarded this information to the HSS department here at Penn. Best, Katya On Mon, Dec 19, 2016 at 10:22 AM, Thomas Haigh <thomas.haigh@gmail.com> wrote:
The event below looks interesting, particularly for those in the mid-Atlantic area. Information history in the information science sense rather than the information technology sense, but a nice mix of prominent historians with information school people. Scientific information, libraries, and intellectual property. Nothing on information in business though.
