Abstract

This poster will review a topic studied within the history of information science and technology and present findings from the second annual award given by the ASIS&T History Fund. The 2010 Research Paper Award discusses the documentation of the Los Angeles Chapter of ASIS&T upon the occasion of its semicentennial year of activities. The Chapter's founding in 1961 reflected the aim of information scientists to share developments and research across the region for the purposes of continuing education. Mirroring trends across the professional landscape nationally, this Chapter's and others' programs have made unique contributions and fostered local understanding of both practical and strategic issues arising from advancements in information access and technology. These Awards are organized by the ASIS&T Special Interest Group on History & Foundations of Information Science (SIG HFIS).
