  4. Vannevar Bush (1890-1974) • WORKED AT: MIT • One of Bush's most important publications was "As We May Think," Atlantic Monthly, 176(1):101-108, 1945. This article defined a critical problem, the "information explosion," and it proposed a solution, using the emerging technology to combat the problem. He built the first analog computer to solve differential equations associated with power surges.

  6. ASIS The American Society for Information Science (ASIS) has been the leader for over 54 years in keeping information professionals on the cutting-edge. ASIS counts among its members some 4,000 information specialists from such fields as computer science, management, engineering, librarianship, chemistry, linguistics, and education. ASIS members continue to lead the information profession in the search for new and better theories, techniques, and technologies to improve access to information through storage and retrieval advances. Founded in the mid-1930's, ASIS has a history which stems from the earliest days of the modern era of documentation.

  7. 1937- Beginnings in Documentation • ASIS was founded on March 13, 1937, as the American Documentation Institute (ADI). Its initial interest was in the development of microfilm as an aid to learning. ADI compiled an impressive record of achievement in its early years of existence: development of microfilm readers, cameras and services; fostering negotiations and research…

  8. 1950's - Transition to Modern Information Science • As the number of people engaged in developing new principles and techniques in the many areas of documentation and information services increased… With the 1950's came increasing awareness of the potential of automatic devices for literature searching and information storage and retrieval. As these concepts grew in magnitude and potential, so did the variety of professional interests.

  9. 1960's - The Information Explosion During the 1960's, membership increased sevenfold as the problems created by the "information explosion" became of national concern. … ASIS had become the leading and most representative national professional organization for those concerned with designing, managing, and using information systems and technology.

  10. 1970's - The Move to Online Information • The fourth decade of ASIS was a transitional time for the profession and ASIS, and the move from batch processing to online modes, from main-frame to mini and micro computers accelerated. Traditional boundaries among disciplines began to fade and library schools added "information" to their titles. ASIS … was an active participant in the planning and implementation of the White House Conference on Library and Information Services.

  11. 1980's - Personal Computers Change the Market The fifth decade of ASIS began with The Information Profession: Survey of an Emerging Field … and saw a flood of large databases such as "Grateful Med" at the National Library of Medicine, bibliographic databases, and families of services such as "Dialog" and ”CompuServe" which are accessible by individuals from their "PCs." … The explosion in information technologies and management issues was so great that ASIS President Martha E. Williams undertook a major consideration of the various disciplines in Information Science that reported at the end of the decade in "ASIS 2000."

  12. ASIS in the 90's -- Rising above the Tides of Change As the winds of the Internet blew across the world, ASIS set its course accordingly. Change, especially in technology, is accelerating and a five year horizon now seems like long range planning. However, the initial building blocks of a knowledge based, learning organization are solidly in place, a foundation which will enable ASIS to move aggressively into the next century.

  13. Scope of JASIS This journal serves as a forum for new research in information transfer and communication processes in general, and in the context of recorded knowledge in particular. Concerns include the generation, recording, distribution, storage, representation, retrieval, and dissemination of information, as well as its social impact and management of information agencies. There is a strong emphasis on new information technologies and methodologies in text analysis, computer based retrieval systems...
