In order to optimize the effectiveness of the management of information as a resource, there must be accountability for that resource in a way similar to accountability for financial and human resources.

He dispels many misconceptions about Information Stewardship and answers the following questions:
- What is information stewardship?
- What are information stewardship roles?
- What is the relationship of information stewardship and Information Resource Management?
- What is the relationship of information stewardship to application development?
- What is the optimum governance mechanism for information?
- How does an organization establish information stewardship?
