H. Borko

American Documentation, 1968, vol. 19, issue 1, 3-5

Abstract: In seeking a new sense of identity, we ask, in this article, the questions: What is information science? What does the information scientist do? Tentative answers to these questions are given in the hope of stimulating discussion that will help clarify the nature of our field and our work.
