The fourth European Conference on Information Literacy (ECIL; ecil2016.ilconf .org), which was held in Prague Oct. 10-13, drew 287 people from 51 countries. It included workshops, short presentations on best practices, a PechaKucha session, posters, and 97 formal papers. Although the conference bills itself as European, that moniker is more about the venue than the attendees, who represent a variety of countries. More came from the U.S., for example, than from the Czech Republic. Also well-represented were the U.K., Norway, and Finland. ECIL's theme for 2016 was Information Literacy in the Inclusive Society.
