We are happy to present these Proceedings, which represent nearly all of the papers, commentaries, keynote addresses, and book panel discussion pieces delivered at the 2016 conference of the Ontario Society for the Study of Argumentation. Note that revised versions of the keynote addresses delivered by Mark Battersby, Susana Nuccetelli, Scott Jacobs, and Jens Kjeldsen, and of Eugen Popa's Blair Prize-winning paper, have also been published in Informal Logic 36 (2).
