SBDI's scientific journal

A pioneering initiative in Latin America, InfoDesign is SBDI's indexed scientific journal, dedicated to presenting and discussing theoretical and practical studies in information design (theory and history; information and communication systems; technology and society; and education).

Selected Readings

The Selected Readings are books that SBDI published after seven editions of CIDI, from 2003 to 2017. Each book gathers a selection of the best papers presented at the conference and texts by the keynote speakers, in English or Portuguese. There are volumes for the 1st to 5th CIDI, the 7th and the 8th; the 6th CIDI, in 2013, had no volume.
