I agree with Jude Wilkinson in her message "Why two other Electronic Bulletin
Boards?"  As a profession, we should explore how we can further facilitate
sharing and exchage of information.  Greater access to the Internet and tools
like gopher and the web are making the connections possible.  Now it's time to
change our own approach to information management, epecially the issue of
control.  Information providers need to look toward building access rather than
proprietary systems.
