The Association of Internet Researchers is among the premier international associations for students and scholars in the field of internet studies. We are an inclusive community and encourage membership by researchers ranging from cultural studies through social sciences to informatics, and beyond. Founded in 1998, AoIR organises academic conferences which annually bring together the best and brightest researchers and practitioners in Internet research.

Membership in AoIR connects you with our vibrant community of scholars, gives you access to our archive of past conference papers, and enables you to take advantage of discount book and journal discounts. It also supports the ongoing work of the Association.
