Books and Information Science 44 books / 15 members / 1 posts Welcome to the Books and Information Science group. Books about books and writers writing about writing are topics for this group. The usage and development of books and the written word over time is an enthralling topic that this group covers. Wikipedia describes information science as an, "interdisciplinary science primarily concerned with the collection, classification, manipulation, storage, retrieval and dissemination of information. Information science studies the application and usage of knowledge in organizations, and the interaction between people, organizations and information systems. It is often (mistakenly) considered a branch of computer science. It is actually a broad, interdisciplinary field, incorporating not only aspects of computer science, but also mathematics, library science, cognitive science, and the social sciences." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_science 3/26/08) Please share historical, technical and fanciful books that touch on information science topics. Including discussion posts, reviews, ratings and tags on the books in this shelf would be great but are not required. Book choices are pretty open ended and include books about electronic publication authoring and indexing. Books about Google, Linux, Web authoring, XML and other technologies for distributing and indexing information would be good to include on this groups shelf. Fiction and non-fiction books that touch on books, writing, reading, libraries, dictionaries and cataloging would be fun to share in this group. Even a Hemingway Novel that talks about his routine of going to the bar early in the day to write could be included or George Orwell's 1984 novel conveying the crime of owning a book. Sharing books on the history of writing and books is greatly appreciated. Ivan Illich's "In the Vineyard of the Text" and Thomas Cahill's, "How the Irish Saved Civilization" are two wonderful books that talk about medieval scriptoriums. Sharing delightful books like these is what this site is about. Including science fiction and fantasy novels that touch upon artificial intelligence, information control, and the power of names and words could be a fun section and could grow to be a large part of this groups shelf. The politics of books and the role of the mass media and even Shelfari itself could be a topic for this group. This groups site can be an interesting experiment and play ground for seeing how a Shelfari book group evolves. Please feel free to join and add books and discussion posts.

Better than Starbucks… if you like good coffee, great books, sharp wit, and people who read 678 books / 1010 members / 10321 posts Better than Starbucks… if you like good coffee, great books, sharp wit, and people who read Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain, Marquez, Morrison, Joyce, Faulkner, Cather, Kingsolver and a few hundred other really delicious writers, not to impress strangers, but because they love a good read, then please join us. We are not a private group, but the administrators will not resist the urge to delete boring and stupid comments. By the same token, personal attacks on young, slow or otherwise disadvantaged players will not be tolerated. Generally, be nice to other members, but spare not public figures, pop lit superstars, big box stores, politicians and religious leaders. Focus more energy on what is good and even what is great, but feel free to throw a stone when the occasion calls for it. Welcome!
