Abstract

A professional association can be defined by its membership, its mission and a variety of different offerings, services, characteristics and attributes. One such characteristic is the research that is presented at the annual conference and published in the proceedings. The intent of this paper is to explore whether there has been a change in the basic research presented and published at the ASIS&T annual conference since the association's name change in 2000. Is more empirical research being presented? Has there been any measurable shift from theoretical to empirical?
