Abstract

"I want to thank Jenna Hartel for inviting me to write the afterword to this set of papers. She is largely responsible—fifteen years ago when I was a visiting professor at UCLA—for introducing me to the rich autonomous literature in library and information science (LIS) that relates to my own project of ""social epistemology"" (Fuller 1988). That phrase turns out to have been an LIS coinage, though I had not known that when I began my project. However, since that time, I have taken a special interest in this field—and the field in me (e.g., Zandonade 2004; Fuller 2010)."
