Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely:  suggests that the ideas and practices embraced by the term documentation introduced by Paul Otlet and his colleagues to describe the work of the International Institute of Bibliography (later FID) that they set up in Brussels in 1895, constituted a new discursive formation to echo Foucault. While today's special terminology of information science was not then in use, this should not obscure the fact that key concepts for information science as  now understand the field of study and research - and the technical systems and professional activities in which it is anchored - re implicit in and operationalised by what was created within the International Institute of Bibliography in 1895 and the decades that follod. The ideas and practices to be discussed would today be rubricated as information technology, information retrieval, search strategies, information centres, fee-based information services, linked data bases, database management software, scholarly communication networks, multimedia and hypertext, even the modern, diffuse notion of information itself. The paper argues that important aspects of the origins of information science as  now know it in the US and elsewhere in the English-speaking world re contained within or became an extension of the discursive formation that  have labeled documentation
