As Program Director for Scientific Documentation at the National Science Foundation's Office of Scientific Information, Brownson published dozens of reports and articles pertaining to information\u2010handling, scientific communication, and machine\u2010translation problems. She presented at and reported on international conferences and would allocate federal grant money toward pioneering projects\u2014all in order to develop better methods for access, storage, and retrieval of recorded scientific information. She was responsible for identifying and supporting the Cranfield Experiments and founded the <jats:italic>Annual Review of Information Science and Technology<\/jats:italic> (ARIST) as well as the two technical systems publications which precipitated the need for an annual review.
