Title
Association of Independent Information Professionals (AIIP)
Description
Since the advent of the "Information Revolution" in the mid-1970's, there has been an increasing demand for professionals who understand information systems and who are skilled in the retrieval methods needed to manage business information needs. Although many of these individuals are employed by corporations and academic institutions, some prefer to work in an entrepreneurial fashion: these are the independent information professionals.
By 1987, Dr. Marilyn Levine, a professor of Library and Information Science at the University of Wisconsin and the owner of Information Express, an information brokerage firm, recognized the need for a professional association to serve this new type of entrepreneur. On June 6, 1987, the Association was organized by twenty-six founding members who answered Dr. Levine's call.
AIIP's members are owners of firms providing such information-related services as online and manual research, document delivery, database design, library support, consulting, writing and publishing.
