AIM OF CONFERENCE
This Caribbean Information conference 2013, that brings
together all Acurileans and other information
professionals.
The conference sought to explore in a collaborative
manner the key elements, strengths and limitations, of
the Commons concept, in its different dimensions, geared
to provide spaces, for individual and collective study,
research, creativity and productivity, in libraries, archives,
museums and other information units; and
Second, to examine together the possible effective
implementation and development of Commons variants,
in our different Knowledge Territories, using the evidencebased practice of the information professional. The G.C
Foster College library will certainly be putting some of
these ideas into practice.
