This article aims to help them develop these tools not by honing their satirical abilities or teaching them how to become more at one with their moral outrage but instead by drawing their attention to several scholarly literatures that offer insights into information history: the history of information technology, social informatics, and business and economic history of technology. I identify nine themes from these literatures that seem ripe for exploration in the history of information science but first examine the boundaries between information science and various other information domains. This article benefits from two recently published literature reviews that provide good overviews of the existing literature on the histories of information science and technology. 1 However, these reviews were retrospective works meant to review existing literature; the goal here is prospective, to suggest avenues for future research.","PeriodicalId":89436,"journal":{"name":"Libraries & the cultural record","volume":"46 1","pages":"230 - 248"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/LAC.2011.0011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66807113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An archive, initially an ancient office building, is now associated with historical records and the places that preserve them. A library, a term once connected with ancient writing material or products, now con notes printed books and the places that provide access to them. And museums, originally places for worshiping the Muses, have become col lections of historical, scientific, artistic, or other cultural objects and the places that exhibit them. These evolving meanings suggest a rich history that began soon after communications began to be preserved in writing, some five millennia ago, and continues into the present as libraries, ar chives, and museums (LAMs) continue to collect, preserve, and provide access to records, books, and other artifacts so that members of each new generation may understand the past and present and prepare for the future.","PeriodicalId":89436,"journal":{"name":"Libraries & the cultural record","volume":"46 1","pages":"185 - 205"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/LAC.2011.0008","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66807033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Smart phones and personal digital assistants that bring effortless mobile emailing and Internet access are but the newest tools for the wired “cool” generation. While the pursuit of novelty still may be the aim of some, for most of North American society the use of information technologies of all kinds has become a natural habit and increasingly a necessity in personal and professional life. The vast potential of computers and sophisticated software applications linked to wireless communications is reshaping customary lines of civil and corporate life. Formerly clear divides between public and private domains are no longer obvious. Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter and the expanding blogosphere have rendered the concept of privacy moot. At the same time, networked social habits expose us to risks. Computers may empower us, but they also impose an as-yet dimly perceived set of new responsibilities on people and citizens to participate more actively in politics and policing. 1","PeriodicalId":89436,"journal":{"name":"Libraries & the cultural record","volume":"46 1","pages":"206 - 219"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/LAC.2011.0009","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66807042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These accounts, based on both surveys of and conversations with children, reveal the relationships children's librarians sought to establish with their young readers and often give some sense of the attitudes of children and their families toward the public library. In their professional reports, children's librarians typically recounted anecdotes, many of which reflected their attitudes toward children's reading habits, immigrant cultural practices, and the perceived need for children to meet middle-class expectations. The writings show that children's librarians struggled to make the library a welcoming place while enforcing rules, and that children were actively engaged with the institution of the public library.","PeriodicalId":89436,"journal":{"name":"Libraries & the cultural record","volume":"46 1","pages":"101 - 73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/LAC.2011.0005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66806985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, it was only when limited space in ministry buildings forced New Regime administrators to discard documents from their own holdings that archivists embraced historical conservation. Through ministerial deposits in the Archives nationales, the archive as a lieu de mémoire—legitimized by a respect des fonds—took shape in nineteenth-century France.","PeriodicalId":89436,"journal":{"name":"Libraries & the cultural record","volume":"46 1","pages":"1 - 25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/LAC.2011.0002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66806938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Predictions from the Depression years tend to place the reader at a moment of historical disjunction and to foresee either a centrally planned library system or a future shaped by wonderful advances in science.

However, after wandering into a back room and searching through the books, Margaret Landesman, head of collection development, came out holding three fine press books by Dard Hunter, causing quite a stir among the browsers.
