OFFICE FOR SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL INFORMATION (OSTI)

Abstract

On 16th June Aslib held an Evening Meeting, attended by an audience of over 300 persons, at the Jarvis Hall of the Royal Institute of British Architects (W1). Mr Leslie Wilson, Director of Aslib, took the chair. At this meeting, Dr H.T. Hookway, Director of the new Office for Scientific and Technical Information of the Department of Education and Science (part successor to the DSIR), defined the work and pattern of the Office. The substance of Dr Hookway's lecture appeared in Nature on Saturday 17th July 1965, pp. 234–6. The following is therefore a report of the discussion only, which took place after the lecture.
