I apologize to the group for my incomplete response. I originally =
started to reply to the sender only but then realized this subject had =
been pretty much going to the whole list so I added lm-net second. My =
e-mail does not include the message unless I tell it to and I forgot to =
cut and paste the important stuff.
The book I think is so great that was originally given by =
cew4835@cmsu2.cmsu.edu (Sorry I didn't save name either <blush>) is =
Richard Saul Wurman's "Information Anxiety; what to do when information =
doesn't tell you what you need to know." originally published in 1989 =
by Doubleday with paperback in 1990 by Bantam. I found my copy tonight =
and the actual quote is "A weekday edition of the New York Times =
contains more information than the average person was likely to come =
across in a lifetime in seventeenth century England." I checked Amazon =
tonight and this book is out of print but maybe you can get a copy via =
interloan. One other thing I really like about this book is that it =
points to how important those of us in the information organization and =
retrieval business are even though he doesn't specifically say this(we =
know don't we :-}). I don't know how many times I have used that point =
in the interview situation. We don't know everything but we know places =
and people to ask!
