Announcement: New Media Symposium

Where: Pratt Manhattan Campus - 6th floor

When: Saturday, April 25 from 2-7pm

The New Media Symposium seeks to address the influence of new media and
emerging technologies in library and information sciences. This event
will feature two panels. The first panel will bring together scholars and
researchers in New Media, Digital and Fine Arts, as well as Library and
Information Science to discuss how and why new media is affecting the
field. The second panel will then feature Pratt alumni from the School of
Information and Library Science who are currently working in new media to
discuss their work in relation to their education, and will also include
recruiters from the field to talk with students about job opportunities.
Refreshments will be provided, and informal breakout sessions will
continue the discussion off-campus.
