Industrial Roots of Information Science.

Windsor, Donald A.

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, v50 n12 p1064-65 Oct 1999

A reflection of what was happening in the field of information science, writing in the Journal of the American Society for Information Science (JASIS) has become specialized to the point of excluding readers outside a narrow circle. A plea is made for JASIS to address a wider audience, because other subject disciplines, as well as industry, could benefit. (AEF)
