[Air-L] CFP & Update: International Conference on Social Media & Society (#SMSociety), Glasgow UK July 13-15, 2026

[Devina Sarwatay]

Dear all,

Hope you had a lovely start to 2026!

We just wanted to gently remind you of our call for submissions for the
International Conference on Social Media & Society (#SMSociety), Glasgow UK
July 13-15, 2026 (
https://socialmediaandsociety.org/2025/call-for-submissions-smsociety-july-13-15-2026-in-glasgow-uk/)
as deadlines are coming up soon.

We have also put up our pricing for the conference (
https://socialmediaandsociety.org/conference-fees-and-registration/). We
are going to keep our registration costs low once again, as we think this
encourages participation and helps a range of scholars come to the event.

Given the interdisciplinary design of the conference, we’re hoping it will
appeal widely, so please do submit and promote it within your networks.
Contact us at ask at socialmediaandsociety.org in case of questions.

Looking forward to seeing you in Glasgow, Tìoraidh!

- on behalf of the Organizing Executive Committee.
