Bush was director of the Office of Scientific Research and Development and coordinated the activities of 6,000 leading American scientiists in the application of science to warfare. After the WWII he urged scientists to turn to the tasks of making more accessible our bewildering store of knowledge. (slight paraphrase) Consider a future device for individual use, which is a sort of mechanized private file and library. It needs a name, and, to coin one at random, "memex" will do. A memex is a device in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. It is an enlarged intimate supplement to his memory. It consists of a desk, and while it can presumably be operated from a distance, it is primarily the piece of furniture at which he works. On the top are slanting translucent screens, on which material can be projected for convenient reading. There is a keyboard, and sets of buttons and levers. Otherwise it looks like an ordinary desk. In one end is the stored material. It consists of a desk, and while it can presumably be operated from a distance, it is primarily the piece of furniture at which he works. On the top are slanting translucent screens, on which material can be projected for convenient reading. There is a keyboard, and sets of buttons and levers.

Given their recent introduction to patrons at Duke, this suggests rapid growth in the adoption of e-books. p. 260.
