"Informatics, which some authors also call informatistics, informatology, exagelectics,
documentalistics, theory etc., is a new, arising branch of science,
which has sprung up as a result of a study into the influence of
information circulation (exchange) for the existence of human society.
Informatics includes theoretical, experimental and applied fields, just
like other natural and social sciences." By Merta, 'INFORMATICS AS A BRANCH OF SCIENCE' (1969), Quote #2420 in Dictionary of Library and Information Science Quotations
