THE RJI VISION

Building a free and open market for digital information

The Internet needs a shared-user network for trust, identity, privacy and information commerce.

This is an interim home page for the Information Trust Association initiative, an idea hatched at the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute at Missouri School of Journalism, Columbia, Mo. It's designed to help the creators and owners of authoritative content. It would create a user-centric service to help the public discover and organize the information they need to be effective, engaged -- and entertained -- citizens.
