Overview: Wealth creation depends on knowledge work as never before, a change full of implications for those who provide information services. This paper argues that a new economic model has created a need for a new type of information professional. Types of information professionals wax and wane with the information needs of the prevailing economic paradigm. This is another way of saying that market demand influences the supply of information services. Moreover, it suggests that OPAs can learn about their present situation by considering it in light of prior relationships between economic paradigms and types of information professionals.
