Watson Davis (1896–1967) was the founder o … Watson Davis (1896–1967) was the founder of the American Documentation Institute (ADI), the forerunner of the Association for Information Science and Technology, and a pioneer in the field of Library and Information Science. He was editor of Science News Letter, the publication of Science Service, an organization established by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the National Academy of Sciences, and the National Research Council in 1920. His longstanding interest in attracting young people to science was noted by, among others, President Lyndon B. Johnson; President Johnson said in 1966 that Watson had "awakened the minds and directed the energies of millions of young Americans toward the achievements in research and technology which are increasingly vital to human progress." He founded, in his capacity as Director of Science Service, the Science Clubs of America, reaching at one point roughly a million school-age children across the United States; he also was one of the originators of the Westinghouse Science Talent Search and the International Science Fair. Nobel Laureate Glenn T. Seaborg, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, who eulogized Watson in 1967, noted that "Watson Davis has done more for the popularization of science and the understanding of science by the general public than any other one individual." In August 1937, Watson chaired the American delegation to the World Congress of Universal Documentation, held in Paris, France. At that event, Watson touted microfilm as a powerful means of information interchange: "[Microfilm] will supplement other forms of publication and make accessible material of all sorts that can not now be printed because of economic factors. It will make available out-of-print and rare books. It is adapted to the publication of photographs and other illustrations.... In this way the document is perpetually 'in print' but no extensive, space-consuming stocks need be stored, only the document itself and the microfilm negative from which positives are made for distribution." He also proposed at this conference that newspapers be archived on microfilm, as opposed to being stored as physical copies.pposed to being stored as physical copies.

Ele fundou, na qualidade de Diretor do Serviço Científico, o Science Clubs of America, alcançando em certo ponto cerca de um milhão de crianças em idade escolar nos Estados Unidos; ele também foi um dos criadores da Westinghouse Science Talent Search e da International Science Fair. O ganhador do Prêmio Nobel e presidente da Comissão de Energia Atômica, Glenn T. Seaborg elogiou Watson em 1967, afirmando que "Watson Davis fez mais pela popularização da ciência e pela compreensão da ciência pelo público em geral do que qualquer outro indivíduo ." Em agosto de 1937, Watson presidiu a delegação americana ao Congresso Mundial de Documentação Universal, realizado em Paris. Nesse evento, Watson elogiou o microfilme como um poderoso meio de intercâmbio de informações: "[O microfilme] complementará outras formas de publicação e tornará acessível material de todos os tipos que não podem ser impressos por fatores econômicos.. Irá tornar acessíveis livros esgotados e livros raros. Adapta-se à publicação de fotografias e outras ilustrações.... Desta forma, o documento está perpetuamente 'impresso', mas não é necessário armazenar estoques extensos e que consomem espaço, apenas o próprio documento e o microfilme negativo do qual os positivos são feitos para distribuição." Ele também propôs nesta conferência que os jornais fossem arquivados em microfilme, em vez de serem armazenados como cópias físicas. de serem armazenados como cópias físicas.
