Documentation to Information Science / The Beginnings and Early Development
of the American Documentation Institute-American Society for Information
Science” is now available full text, no fee at

PASIG:  ASIST had begun doing administrative and implementation work with

started by Sun and then Oracle.  Their meeting and other information is at
