Center for Information as Evidence
UCLA Department of Information Studies
The Center for Information as Evidence (CIE) is located within the Department of Information Studies at the Graduate School of Education & Information Studies of the University of California, Los Angeles. The Center serves as an interdisciplinary forum addressing the ways in which information objects and systems are created, used, and preserved as legal, administrative, scientific, social, cultural and historical evidence. CIE is committed to incorporating perspectives from ethnic communities from around the world in order to sustain the diversity within indigenous cultural heritages and broaden methods of information analysis and conservation.
