But we had a notion that when it’s a serious paper, we go to the library and start looking in indexes. But serious scholars, who want their work to stand the test of time, will appreciate Abbott's unique, forthright approach and relish every page of Digital Paper.My students [at the University of Chicago] today are completely overwhelmed by the amount of stuff that’s available to them on the internet, and they’re particularly overwhelmed because they don’t have any clues about how to make judgements of quality. And the experiential message of the internet is that everything has an address somewhere, you just need to find it, you just need an address. Teachers need to start teaching their students how to use libraries, or they’ll simply be taken away.

I coded an entire database of about a thousand psychiatrists out of that damn book, augmented it with four or five other sources, and then created secondary forms for all the psychiatric faculties on which these people served, for all the major societies of which these people were members, and so forth. So sometimes we try to make novelty just for its own sake—hence the worry about trendiness, which is just false up-to-the-minute-ness.

Now that number is down to 2%, and what’s clear is that the vast majority of people citing Kuhn have probably never read the book.

I can remember sitting in the second floor of the Regenstein Library for about three months, over on the east side, filling out a one-page form on every psychiatrist or neurologist I could locate in Who’s Who in American Medicine for 1925.
