• 24 Years (but Who's Counting?)

On the author's first day at Learned Information in May 1986, she knew her new job as advertising and marketing assistant would open up a whole new world for her. The first half of each day was allotted to helping marketing director Jacqueline "Jay" Trolley with her projects. Then in May 1988, Trolley took a job at the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) in Philadelphia, and she became a marketing assistant without anyone to assist for quite a while. When she became a Learned Information employee, she was 24 and the "baby" of the office. In her years here she's gone from working as a secretarial assistant to a senior managing editor.

Neither citation analysis nor a comprehensive acknowledgement index would reveal his multifaceted influence in the fields of artificial intelligence, space science, science policy, scientific communication, information retrieval, and the life sciences. It was Josh who recommended that the Institute for Scientific Information, and later The Scientist, join with Annual Reviews Inc. in sponsoring the National Academy of Sciences annual award for scientific reviewing.11 My personal bond to Josh was reinforced by our mutual friendship with the sociologists Robert K. Merton and Harriet Zuckerman and countless other creative scholars, including Harold Urey, Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Albert Stunkard, Hilary Koprowski and Carl Djerassi.
