It's interesting that this article didn't mention Gopher, which was developed at the University of Minnesota. Jean Amour Polly would have definitely known about it, as back then the Gopher Team was all about creating Digital Libraries.

And Mark McCahill was a ardent Windsurfer, which resulted in this shirt, designed by his partner Wendy Jedeckila, way back in 1991!

If you look up her guide on project Gutenberg, there are references to Gopher. It's nostalgic to see "WorldWideWeb" getting a brief mention as as another service that you can try out.
