Intermediaries — the vital force

Abstract

The documentalist, librarian or intermediary has been the central figure in the growth of online since the early 1970s. But many of today's online gurus and would‐be gurus conveniently omit references to that vital force in online. It's as if the actual online users have been forgotten or have not come to the attention of the newly‐minted online experts.
