Abstract

Addresses 3 related questions: why was the work of the European documentalists largely ignored in in the USA, before the 2nd World War; what was the information science versus library science about; technological innovation was a vital force in library science in the late 19th century and after 1950, why was it not a vital force in between?. Examination of the technological background and of the Graduate Library School, University of Chicago, suggests that there was a temporary paradigm change away from design and technological innovation. Arguments over information science reflected a reversal of that paradigm

Abstract

Founded in 1937 as the American Documentation Institution, the ASIS is 62 years old. Information science includes 2 fundamental different traditions: a 'document' traditiion concerned with signifying objects and their use; and a 'computational' tradition of applying algorithmic, logical, mathematical, and mechanical techniques to information management. Both traditions have been deeply influenced by technological modernism: Technology, standards, systems, and efficiency enable progress. Both traditions are needed. Information Science is rooted in part in humanities and qualitative social sciences. The landscape of Information Science is complex. An ecumenical view is needed
