Following an enthusiastic response to our call for papers,
we have=A0put together a diverse and international programme
of speaker=A0presentations, posters and demonstrations. This
year's conference=A0offers an exciting variety of case-studies
from design practitioners=A0and their customers, reports from
researchers, and thought-provoking=A0reflections on the
principles behind what information designers and
communicators do.

Topics include:

  =A0=A0* Wayfinding and signing
  =A0=A0* Interaction design
  =A0=A0* Health information
  =A0=A0* Instructions and explanations
  =A0=A0* Designing online learning environments
  =A0=A0* Design models, theories and techniques
  =A0=A0* Information design history

There will also be panel discussions, a poster session/reception,
and the opportunity to exchange views in smaller groups with
other=A0conference participants. The detailed programme will
appear on the=A0website within a few days.

As in IDC 2007, the conference setting is the Restoration
grandeur=A0of the University of Greenwich in London, in
buildings designed by=A0Sir Christopher Wren. =A0We've also
organised a convivial conference=A0dinner in the historic
Trafalgar Tavern, overlooking the Thames.

Conference fees have been set at =A3250 for two days,
=A3150 for one,=A0with discounts for presenters, students
and group bookings. =A0You=A0can book and pay securely
online by credit card or PayPal, or by=A0bank transfer.

See Web site for more details.

IDC 2009 is the latest in a series of UK-based Information
Design=A0Conferences organised by the Information Design
Association, most=A0recently held in 1998, 2000 and 2007.
Our previous events have=A0been most enjoyable and
intellectually stimulating, and have led=A0to lasting
global friendships and collaborations. We do not doubt
that IDC 2009 will be every bit as rewarding.
