"""Genre Theory in Information Studies consolidates and carries forward emerging inquiries in information and archival sciences that have been using genre to understand how knowledge is organized, made available, and used in society. Together these studies unpack knowledge processes in contexts as varied as private life and large government organizations, within complexities arising from the uncertainties and destabilizations of war or the rich traditions and dense utterances of literary culture. Together these studies give us tools to understand more realistically and more deeply what knowledge is and how we make sense and use of it."" Charles Bazerman, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA."
