      The Henderson Lecture

Web expert to discuss the changing nature of information-sharing Dec. 7

The digital revolution and how it has eliminated the restrictions of 
physicality will be the subject of a Dec. 7 talk at the University of North 
Carolina at Chapel Hill by Dr. David Weinberger, coauthor of the best-selling 
book "The Cluetrain Manifesto" (Perseus Books, 2000).

Weinberger, a commentator on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered" 
and "Here and Now," will speak at 2 p.m. in 116 Murphey Hall. "Everything is 
Miscellaneous" will be the title of the free public talk, this year's Henderson 
lecture held by the School of Information and Library Science.

"We are in the midst of this revolution that touches how we organize our 
businesses, our customers' control of the information they touch and the 'who' 
and 'what' of trust," said Weinberger, who recently was accepted as a fellow at 
Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet & Society.

Weinberger was senior Internet adviser for Howard Dean's presidential campaign. 
His articles have appeared in Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, 
Wired Magazine, The Guardian and other publications. He is a columnist for 
KMWorld and Darwin magazines. He is currently completing work on Everything is 
Miscellaneous, which is to be published by Times Books in the spring of 2007.

The Lucile Kelling Henderson Lecture Series was established in 1990 to honor 
the memory of Lucile K. Henderson, a school faculty member from 1932 to 1960 
and dean from 1954 to 1960. A reception will follow the talk.
