The InSITE 2011 conference is being held in Novi Sad (New Garden), Serbia
this June.  Submissions are due in November at http://InSITE.nu.  Please
volunteer (at http://volunteer.InSITE.nu) to review.

Why You Want to Visit Novi Sad?  Novi Sad is known as the cultural capital
of Serbia because of the variety of museums, galleries, and events. Its
center has a large pedestrian zone, filled with shops and outdoor cafés.  It
is safe to walk any time of day or night. The city is on the banks of the
Danube, and is renowned as having the second best river beach in Europe;
many restaurants overlooking the river. The conference banquet will be held
at one of these restaurants. In addition to the paper sessions, we are
offering a day trip to Belgrade, a day trip to the area around Novi Sad, and
a half-day walking tour of the city.

 The conference host and co-organizer, the Higher Education Technical School
of Professional Studies, Novi Sad, is dedicated to continuing the InSITE
tradition of a collegial, supportive atmosphere in which to share your
research and network with other delegates from around the world. The school
is in the city center, a short walk from the conference hotels. We have
obtained substantial discounts at three hotels on the pedestrian zone of the
city center. (Please see below.)

Novi Sad is about an hour drive from the Belgrade airport, and we have
arranged for frequent transportation from the airport to your hotel for $15
per person each way. Novi Sad can also be reached by bus or train from many
cities, as well as by car.

Please submit a paper by November 30 and join us in Novi Sad this June.
Please also share information about the conference with your colleagues. The
call for papers can be downloaded from
http://www.InSITE.nu/docs/2011CFP.pdf, details about the conference are on
the web at http://insite.nu/.  Paper submissions are accepted now through
November 30, 2010.

Papers typically undergo blind review by 4 or more reviewers.  All accepted
papers will be published in the proceedings.  Selected papers will be
fast-tracked for publication in the journals Informing Science, Journal of
Information Technology Education, Interdisciplinary Journal of E-Learning
and Learning Objects, Interdisciplinary Journal of Doctoral Studies,
Interdisciplinary Journal of Information, Knowledge, and Management, or the
journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology.

 Affordable Fees and Hotel Prices.  InSITE endeavors to make its conference
affordable.  Here are some preliminary pricing for those making their budget
requests now. 

 .         Accommodations: The conference discounted room rates in a 3-star
hotel start at 25 Euros per night for a single room with breakfast.  We have
secured rooms at three hotels that range from 3-star to 4-star and can
provide contacts for a five-star hotel.  

 .         Conference Fee:  The conference provides three discounts: for
authors of accepted paper, for conference reviewers who complete the
reviews, and for paying the registration fee by March 15.  (Regular faculty
of Serbian institutions receive yet one more discount.)  The total fee for
authors who also review and pay their conference fee by March 15 for the
