Here's a short quote from the September 1995 column Jon Udell
(judell at bix.com) writes for BYTE magazine on the web site he's putting
together for BYTE:

"As the Web absorbs and extends the world's libraries, authors and editors
will find that proper classification of their contributions to the web will
make those documents easier to find and, hence, more valuable. My advice to
major Web contributors (and to creators of Web authoring tools) is to hire a
library scientist."
