The 2nd Annual Graduate Symposium took place on Saturday, March 30, 2013, as the result of collaborative work of the diverse Simmons GSLIS student organizations including: SCoSAA, PLG, ASA-SC, Panopticon, LISSA, ASIS&T, UXPA@Simmons, SLA, and support from GSLIS. The Symposium provided an opportunity for students to present on their research interests, prepare for future professional conferences, network with their peers, and explore how related professions such as archives, libraries, history, and museums are converging.
