The American Documentation Institute (ADI) was founded by Watson Davis〔Schultz, Claire K. & Garwig, Paul L. (1969). History of the American Documentation Institute-A Sketch. ''American Documentation'', 20(2), 152-160.〕 (1896-1967) in 1935 as ''Documentation Institute'' which changed its name to the American Documentation Institute in 1937. In 1968 it changed its name to American Society for Information Science, which again in 2000 changed its name to the present: American Society for Information Science and Technology Watson Davis was one of the first Americans to take an interest in how the terms “document” and “documentation” were being used in Europe. ADI early on worked toward the development of microfilm readers and cameras. Their first microfilm laboratories were located in the U.S.Department of Agriculture Library in Washington, DC and the Institute distributed materials through the newly created Bibliofilm Service. In 1954, the Photoduplication Service at the Library of Congress took over the operation and in 2009 the Library of Congress Technical Reports and Standards Unit became the source point for distributing ADI materials.〔("American Documentation Institute Reports" ). Library of Congress, ("Technical Reports and Standards Unit" ).〕 In many respects, the ADI goal for the easy dissemination of information was a precursor to housing data sets and related content in digital repositories accessible via the Web.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=American Documentation Institute Reports )〕 ADI decided in 1950 to create a journal modeled after the defunct ''Journal of Documentary Reproduction'', which had been published by the American Library Association from 1938〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Journal of Documentary Reproduction )〕 to 1942.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=THE LANDSCAPE OF INFORMATION SCIENCE: THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AT 62 )〕 ADI published the journal ''American Documentation''.〔Tate, V. (1950). Introducing American Documentation, a quarterly review of ideas, techniques, problems, and achievements in documentation. ''American Documentation'', 1(1), 3-6.〕 from 1950 until 1968, when ADI changed its name as an organization and renamed ''American Documentation'' as the ''Journal of the American Society for Information Science''. In 2000, the society changed names again, and the journal followed suit, becoming the current Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology. In 1966, ADI began publication of the Annual Review of Information Science and Technology. Its successor organizations continued publishing the annual review under that title until 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ARIST to Cease Publication )〕 ==See also== *Documentation science *Library Science *Information Science *American Society for Information Science and Technology 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「American Documentation Institute」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
