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.
