Editorial


I am pleased to introduce the second full issue of the Dalhousie Journal of Information and Management. For this issue we purposely avoided imposing a theme on submissions to attract a diverse range of papers, and yet many interesting connections can be made between the six papers presented here:

 

“Patient Health E-ducation: Changing Dynamics in the Physician-Patient Relationship”

by Kathleen Amos
 

 “The Under Representation of Women in a 'Feminized Profession': Gender Stereotyping, Management Politics, and the Dissemination of Information”

by Amanda Bird
 

“Copyfight: Creative Commons, Open Licensing, Bringing Information to the People (And letting them use it)”

by Candace Hare
 

“The Right to Communicate: Past Mistakes and Future Possibilities”

by Deborah Hicks
 

“National Cultural Heritage Networks:  Access and Context in the Digital Environment”

by Lori McCay-Peet
 

“The Politics of Public Library History”

by A. S. Popowich

 

These papers explore the diverse world of information management and provide insight into both classic and contemporary debates. Enjoy.
