Consider attending the workshops with PhD students who present and discuss their PhD projects. This is always a very inspiring tradition at the ISI conferences. The range of topics address such a wide variety as epistemological aspects of information literacy training to semantic retrieval instruments.
Every ISI participant is welcome to join the discussion during Wednesday morning and a part of Thursday afternoon.

The day before the official start of ISI2013 we will also host the conference of the German Chapter of the “International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO)” Among the 22 talks we would like to dray your attention to the Keynote from Birger Hjørland (Royal School of Library and Information Science, Kopenhagen) delivering an update of his “Fundamentals of Knowledge Organization” (2003). With no doubt one can consider him as one of the master thinkers of Information Science world wide. (I personally enjoyed reading all the time since we first met at one of my workshops I organized during the IFLA conference 1996 in Beijing.)
Other talks to be recommended may be: Michael Kleineberg (HU Berlin): “Der Elefant und die Blinden – zur Organisation epistemischer Kontexte” or Martin Frické (Univ. Arizona): “Logic and Librarianship” just to mention only three.
Have a look at the program, freshly going to print ISKO 2013 Handout. And remember to register separately!
