- "Park has created a useful tool, especially for decision-makers. . . . She is concerned about the attention given to technology rather than to content, and believes that strong information skils are key to wading through the vast amount of content the technology finds for us."

- "InfoThink is a book I would highly
recommend to anyone who needs to find and use
good information in today's working
environments. The seventeen articulate and
knowledgeable people Park has interviewed
provide their different perspectives (their
"infothink") on how they gather and convert
information to action.

- As a computer teacher, I know that this book
is valuable because it deals with information
content, not just information technology. It
provides insights into methodologies and
processes that professionals use to make their
decisions. "

- "I was impressed at the variety and quality
of the people Park interviewed. These are
professionals who understand how they use
information, and many of them are what could be
described as real power-searchers. In addition,
they are able to articulate how theyidentify
gaps in their knowledge, what they do to meet
their needs, and how they translate information
into action."
