The web mobilizes information in electronic formats, making it easier to copy, modify, remix, and redistribute. This has changed how information is produced, distributed, and used. People are not just consuming information; they are actively…

Ernst, Ronald L.; Yovits, Marshall C. – 1969
This paper deals with the organization of two important areas which interact strongly: information science and decision-making. Both are commonly and extensively used in a variety of ways and share an equally commonly and extensively used variety of definitions. This paper deals with the mutual interaction between information science and…

Heilprin, Laurence B. – 1973
Search for an integrated, comprehensive theory of information science (IS) has so far been unsuccessful. Appearance of a theory has been retarded by one central constraint, the large number of disciplines concerned with human communication. Crossdisciplinary interdependence occurs in two ways: theoretical relation of IS phenomena to a given…

Whittemore, B. J.; Yovits, M. C. – 1972
A generalized framework for developing analytical and conceptual relationships involving the flow of information has been suggested. This paper provides further refinement, rigor, and extension for some of the earlier relationships suggested. In particular, a measure of the amount of information is defined as the difference of the value of the…

Paisley, William – 1980
Educational dissemination has contributed a number of innovative concepts and strategies to information science. Much-misunderstood ERIC, which combines research reports with policy documents and teaching materials, is one of the first and best examples of a field-oriented rather than discipline-oriented database. Building on ERIC, federal…
