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

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

Examines the nature of records management theory, including information retrieval, record life cycle, and information policy. Concludes that records management theory should not be seen in isolation and need not be unique to records management. Outlines functional, professional, and educational contexts of records management theory, with examples

Abstract

Vannevar Bush's famous article, 'As we may think' (Atlantic monthly 176(1945) S.101-108) described an imaginary information retrieval machine, the Memex. The Memex is usually viewed, unhistorically, in relation to subsequent developments using digital computers. This study reconstructs the little-known background of information retrieval in and before 1939 when 'As we may think' was originally written. The Memex was based on Bush's work during 1938-40 in developing an improved photoelectric microfilm selector, an electronic retrieval technology pioneered by Emanuel Goldberg of Zeiss, Ikon Dresden, in the 1920s. Visionary statements by Paul Otlet (1934) and Walter Schürmeyer (1935) and the development of electronic document retrieval technology before Bush are examined

Abstract

Reports on a project to create OASIS (Otlet's Adaptive Searcher Information Service) which uses a workstation as a front end connected over the Internet to a large second generation online library catalogue. Preprocessing in the front end enables the searcher to submit new commands which the front end passes on to the host in a form acceptable to the host. Postprocessing by the front end of downloaded sets permits 2 stage retrieval startegies, and, thereby enhanced retrieval capabilities not supported by the host
