John S. Billings

    John Shaw Billings was a pioneer in medical informatics and library science. His work in modernizing the Library of the Surgeon General's Office fundamentally shaped the organization and accessibility of medical information, forming the core of what would become the National Library of Medicine. As the first director of the New York Public Library, Billings inspired Andrew Carnegie's significant philanthropic support for library construction. Furthermore, his innovative methods for analyzing data using punch cards presaged the development of modern computing systems and established foundational principles for managing vast collections.
