[Sigia-l] IA and medium

[Heller, David]

Library Sciences is not IA. IA is library science's tangent into UCD for
interactive media. the reason we can't say JUST the WEB is b/c of what the
web is. It is too limited in scope in that it is defined by HTTP and HTML.
to even limit it by Internet doesn't make sense either as the Internet is
just the network.

But interactive media is something broad enough to attach to.

But we can even say that IAs do print if we look at RSW's work. Isn't the
Access guide a form of IA?

What makes IA different from Library Science? 
Influences
tangential resources
Is more about design processes (???)

Why separate from LS?
B/c some of us came from outside sources and came to teh same conclusions?
Is there something in our theories that don't match up w/ LIS? Does LIS not
say enough? What doesn't it say?

well, I gave more questions than answers, but I think that IA is LIS
interactive, or LIS meets UCD.
