He has served as lead information architect on projects for such prestigious clients as AT&T, Borders Books & Music, Chrysler Corporation, Dow Chemical, SIGGRAPH, and UMI.

Lou has worked to introduce the principles of information science and librarianship to the Internet environment since 1990. In 1993, he founded a popular Internet research service, the Argus Clearinghouse, on these principles.
