content of the book

In December 2012, The Swedish School of Library and Information Science (SSLIS) at the University of Borås held its 40th anniversary of the establishment of the Library school in Borås. This event was to be an excellent reason to invite colleagues in Library and Information Science in the Nordic and Baltic countries to a Jubilee Conference for two days. The programme, containing keynote speakers and paper presentations organized in themes like Information Practices; Digital Services and Social Media; and Library, Culture and Society, gave a rich overview of current research and education in our countries today. Out of more than twenty contributions at the confer- ence, the book contains nine peer reviewed articles. Taken together, they mirror the richness and variety in current research in Library and Information Science. This is also reflected by its title: Library, black metal and corporate finance. This book is primarily addressed to researchers in the field of Library and Information Science, but it will also be of interest to graduate and under-graduate students. The editors are researchers at the Swedish School of Library and Information Science. Anders Frenander holds a PhD in The History of Ideas and is a professor in Library and Information Science. Skans Kersti Nilsson holds a PhD in Comparative Literature and is a senior lecturer in Library and Information Science.
