Vision statement
Abstract
Three years ago, Derek Law and I wrote a conference paper in which we questioned what we saw as our profession's uncritical embracing of CD‐ROM technology. In its published form it stirred up a wasps' nest of comment which included a marketing first in Charles Chadwyck‐Healey's pioneering of the footnote as an advertising medium. The danger of dabbling publicly in futurology is that the written word is normally more permanent than the ideas it conveys, and that those who thought you were daft at the time can normally manage to put their hands to a few damaging phrases.
