Schneider Royal School of LIS Aalborg, Denmark mounia@dcs.gla.ac.uk tassos@dcs.qmul.ac.uk pb@db.dk jws@db.dk Introduction The second International Symposium on Information Interaction in Context (IIiX Â08) was held at the London office of the British Computer Society (BCS), London, UK on 14-17 October 2008. IIiX Â08 succeeded the first symposium held in Copenhagen in 2006. The primary objective of IIiX is to investigate how the concept of context can be understood and exploited to make information systems truly interactive. Knowledge about context can be used effectively to constrain retrieval and seeking of information and to understand ensuing information behaviours including relevance and use, thereby reducing the complexity of the interaction processes. As in the case of the first IIiX symposium, the aim of IIiX Â08 was to bring together researchers from the related areas of information seeking behaviour, laboratory IR, and interactive IR to provide a forum for discussion and collaboration on context issues with respect to information seeking and retrieval. This was successfully achieved
