note = {The 15th International ISKO Conference has been held in Porto
(Portugal) under the topic <i>Challenges and opportunities for KO in
the digital age</i>. ISKO has been organizing biennial international
conferences since 1990, in order to promote a space for debate among
Knowledge Organization (KO) scholars and practitioners all over the
world.The topics under discussion in the 15th International ISKO
Conference are intended to cover a wide range of issues that, in a
very incisive way, constitute challenges, obstacles and questions in
the field of KO, but also highlight ways and open innovative
perspectives for this area in a world undergoing constant change, due
to the digital revolution that unavoidably moulds our society.
Accordingly, the three aggregating themes, chosen to fit the proposals
for papers and posters to be submitted, are as follows: <i>1 –
Foundations and methods for KO; 2 – Interoperability towards
information access; 3 – Societal challenges in KO</i>. In addition
to these themes, the inaugural session includes a keynote speech by
Prof. David Bawden of City University London, entitled <i>Supporting
truth and promoting understanding: knowledge organization and the
curation of the infosphere.</i>},
