FAMULUS revisited: Ten years of personal information systems

Hilary D. Burton

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1981, vol. 32, issue 6, 440-443

Abstract: This article examines the development and current status of research on personal information systems, i.e., those systems where an individual collects, annotates, and stores bibliographic information according to his own (idiosyncratic) needs and preferences. Effects of computer‐based dissemination services on the growth and management of these systems are discussed. Recently announced and more traditional computerized services to support such systems are reviewed and the benefits to be gained from effectively supporting personal systems are enumerated.
