Stephen Robertson, Information Science - Home Page

I spent 15 years, from 1998 to 2013, as a researcher at the Microsoft Research Laboratory in Cambridge (England, that is). I was a fellow of Girton College, Cambridge from 2003 to 2013, and remain a Life Fellow. I spent much of my career at City University London, in what was the Department of Information Science. I worked there full-time from 1978 to 1998 and part-time from then till 2009, and was head of department from 1988 to 1996. I remain Professor Emeritus at City. In 1987 I started the Centre for Interactive Systems Research in the Department. My co-director for a number of years was Micheline Beaulieu, subequently at the University of Sheffield. A subsequent director was Andy MacFarlane. This is the poem one of my colleagues, Susan Jones, wrote for me when I moved to Microsoft in 1998. I previously held a Royal Society Scientific Information Research Fellow at University College London, School of Library Archive and Information Studies, where I had done my PhD with B.C. Brooke
