What information should be memorized? To what extent should we rely on looking things up? Striking the proper balance between what we retain in memory and what is best checked in books, databases or archives is a preoccupation in public discussion. The project gives this issue an historical perspective, showing how priorities have changed from an emphasis on memory and personal notebooks to an acceptance of retrieval from external sources. Focussing on the period of the Scientific Revolution, it contributes to the understanding of our early modern European heritage - a field in which Australian scholars have a strong reputation.

哪些信息需要记忆？我们应该在多大程度上依靠查资料呢？在我们记忆中保留的东西和在书籍、数据库或档案中最好检查的东西之间取得适当的平衡，是公众讨论中的一个当务之急。这个项目给这个问题一个历史的角度来看，显示优先事项如何从强调记忆和个人笔记本电脑，以接受从外部来源检索。专注于科学革命时期，它有助于我们早期现代欧洲遗产的理解-澳大利亚学者在这一领域享有盛誉。
