Dear Colleagues,

The organizing committee of the 10th Annual International Conference on Social Media and Society (#SMSociety) invites you to visit Toronto on July 19-21, 2019. This year's conference will be held at the Ted Rogers School of Management and hosted by Ryerson University Social Media Lab. The 2019 conference theme is "Rethinking Privacy and Trust in the Social Media Age."

The Conference offers an intensive 3-day program including hands-on workshops, full & work-in-progress papers, panels, and posters featuring the latest in social media research. This year, we are honoured to have two highly distinguished scholars as our keynote speakers: * Tarleton Gillespie, a principal researcher at Microsoft Research New England, and an affiliated professor in the Department of Communication and Department of Information Science at Cornell University. His new book, Custodians of the Internet: Platforms, Content Moderation, and the Hidden Decisions that Shape Social Media (Yale University Press) was published in June 2018. * Valerie Steeves, a professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of Ottawa. As the lead researcher of MediaSmarts' Young Canadians in a Wired World research project, she has been tracking young people's use of new media since 2000. She is also the principal investigator of The eQuality Project, a seven-year partnership exploring young people's experiences of privacy and equality in networked spaces.
