What's new?

I have just been elected incoming President of ASIST (2012-13).

I have also agreed to serve as series editor for a new UT Press Book Series on Information. Interested in authoring? Send me a line.

Am working on a couple of papers now: one with Ciaran Trace on the application of genre theory to finding aids, and another with Phil Doty on the development of our new program in intelligence studies which you can find here

e-Copies are now available of the majority of my writings since 1988 on this site - just click on publications link above. Read my InfoMatters blog to get some of my latest words on all matters information-related.

A paper outlining the development of our new joint MSIS/J.D. degree was published in Spectrum - follow the index to the pdf

Since I get asked for this one: I've posted the keynote address I gave at the Annual International Conference on Knowledge Management here.

My White Paper for CLIR on the future of academic libraries makes a case for information as a discovery accelerator.
