Association for Information Science and Technology

The Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) is a non-profit membership organization for information professionals. Previously known as the American Society for Information Science and Technology (2000–2013), the organization sponsors an annual conference as well as several serial publications, including the ''Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology'' (JASIST) and the association's ''Bulletin''. The organization provides administration and communications support for its various divisions, known as special-interest groups or SIGs; provides administration for geographically defined chapters; connects job seekers with potential employers; and provides organizational support for continuing education programs for information professionals.〔
== History ==
Founded on 13 March 1937 as the American Documentation Institute (ADI) by Watson Davis, Atherton Seidell, and others, the organization was first concerned with microfilm and its role as a vehicle for the dissemination of information. ADI established the Auxiliary Publication Program, which during its 30-year history released nearly 10,000 documents covering a wide range of subjects. The program enabled authors in the fields of physical, natural, social, historical and information sciences to publish and distribute research papers that were either too long, typographically complex or expensive to be published in journals using existing technology.〔("American Documentation Institute Reports" ). Library of Congress, ("Technical Reports and Standards Unit" ).〕 In 1954, the Photoduplication Service at the Library of Congress took over the operation and became the source point for distributing ADI materials and in 2009 this material found its home in the Library's Technical Reports and Standards Unit.〔("ADI Collection" )〕
1950s was the transition to Modern Information Science:In 1952 the Bylaws were amended to allow individuals to become members due to the number of people that were engaged in the development of new principles and techniques. The goal was to make ADI a group that was concerned with all elements and problems of information science not just libraries. During this time there were increase interests and developments of automatic devices for searching, storage and retrieval.〔
In January 1968, ADI became the American Society for Information Science. The change was made to represent the organization’s interest in "all aspects of the information transfer process" such as, "designing, managing and using information systems and technology."〔 In 2000 the organization updated its name, adding ''Technology'' to embrace the prevalence and increasing centrality of online databases and other technical aspects of the information profession. In 2013 the organization was renamed as the Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) to reflect its international membership. Today, the organization comprises professionals from various fields including engineering, linguistics, librarianship, education, chemistry, computer science and medicine. The members share "a common interest in improving the ways society stores, retrieves, analyzes, manages, archives and disseminates information ".〔
1970s was The Move to Online Information: During this time many institutions are making the move from batch processing to online modes, from mainframe computers to more modern computers. With the advancement of technology the traditional boundaries began to fade and library schools started to add "information" in the titles of their programs. ASIS sponsored a bicentennial conference which focused on the role of information in the country's development. The group also participated in the planning and implementation of the White House Conference on Library and Information Services. ".〔
1980s brings is the beginning of the popularity of Personal Computers: This is the first time individuals can access large databases, such as Grateful Med at the National Library of Medicine, and user-oriented services such as Dialog and Compuserve on their personal computers. ASIS created groups on office information, personal computers, international information issues and rural information services in response to the changing environment. Eventually other groups were created, such as: non-print media, social sciences, energy and the environment, and community information systems. ASIS also added its first non-North American Chapters. ".〔
ASIS&T Today: The group continues to grow and change. In 2000's the groups name changes twice; first in 2000 to American Society for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T)in order to reflect the range of its members; then in 2013 to Association for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) to reflect its growing international membership. ASIS&T is involved in the forefront of in examining the technical bases, social consequences, and theoretical understanding of online databases. They also study the effects of widespread use of databases in government, industry, and education, and the development of information databases on the Internet and World Wide Web ".〔
