Allen Kent was a pioneer in many aspects of library and information science (LIS), and yet, as this author reads Kent's 1977 article, there is not much in it that has become ancient, irrelevant history. The questions he discusses are still alive in the discipline in 2014, whether it is called LIS (library and information science), information science, information studies, or an "iSchool education." In this article, the author provides a brief history of Allen Kent, and then discusses her reactions to his article on information science.
