IA, Therefore I Am
by James Kalbach (2003)
Subject: Information Architecture - General, Library & Information Science
Language: English
Abstract: The relationship between IA and librarianship, however, is of particular interest. With only a blurry line separating the two fields, many practicing IAs find themselves asking "Is IA the same as librarianship, only in digital environments and with a hipper name?" Likewise, librarians who come in contact with IA may ask "How is what I do not IA?" At the highest level, both seek to match an information need with an information resource. Both also share a strong responsibility for effectively finding and using information with a strong focus on organization and classification. But, significant distinctions can be made, which in part point to the need for IA and justify its existence.
