Monday – Saturday, 8 – 13 Oct

Hjørland, Birger and Hanne Albrechtsen. “Towards a New Horizon in Information Science: Domain-Analysis.” JASIS 46(6): 1995, 400-425.

Thanks to all the events of the week this article took much longer to read than it should. I have, though, marked it as a “key document.” As such it will get a much closer re-reading and documenting.

If you are at all interested in domain-analysis I highly suggest reading this paper.

Somewhere during the week I also read some chapters of Zelle and Downey, et. al. for LIS452. I’m not going to worry about recording them for this week.

Not sure if I missed anything else. I am assuming that I did. I know I started a few things here and there that aren’t in here. All in all, this does capture most of my reading for this week, though.
