Networked information retrieval and organization: Issues and questions

Joseph W. Janes and Louis B. Rosenfeld

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1996, vol. 47, issue 9, 711-715

Abstract: The creation of guides to resources on the Internet specific to particular subjects have raised a number of interesting questions and issues. These issues fall into two broad categories: The Internet environment (its culture, virtual communities and netiquette; agency and authority; the nature of “publication;” the importance and lack of standards; and searching tools and processes) and the process of guide construction (the importance of people; the nature of “resources” on the Net; intellectual property; levels of connectivity; and time). Some conclusions are drawn regarding the future and evolution of information professions in this environment. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
