Issues in information technology in the United States

Charles T. Meadow

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1972, vol. 23, issue 5, 292-298

Abstract: This paper is a survey of a number of issues that are concerned with information science, of importance outside the field as well as within, and generally caused by or related to changes in technology. Issues are considered in four broad categories, those concerned with computers, communications, image recording and information content. Their importance lies in the fact that how they are resolved will affect the transition of the United States from a primarily industrial to a post industrial society. The intent of the article is to present the issues and their possible impact rather than to offer solutions.
