Lee Pit Teong is no stranger to librarians throughout Asia or publishers in North America and Europe. From the late 1980s he became an evangelist for electronic information, travelling the region with CD-ROMS and a huge drive to convince librarians that the future had arrived.

His enthusiasm and unsurpassed knowledge was recognized last month when he was invited to sit on the ACM Digital Library Committee, the only member resident in Asia.
