Despite this ubiquity, some types of sensory information have received little<br />attention within library and information studies (LIS). This CAIS paper analyzes one<br />sense as an example, the sense of smell, in order to identify cultural, linguistic, and<br />methodological considerations for bringing it into greater focus within our discipline.<br />This paper illustrates the complexities of studying sensory information, and argues that<br />doing so will contribute to richer examinations of people’s information practices.}, journal={Proceedings of the Annual Conference of CAIS / Actes du congrès annuel de l’ACSI}, author={Polkinghorne, Sarah}, year={2018}, month={Aug.} }
