    Abstract
    The Household Information Systems (HIS) project in Queen Margaret College was funded to explore the use of new media in a group of Edinburgh households (Davenport & Higgins, 1995). One of the motivations of the HIS 'programme' was to find a suitable theoretical and/or exploratory framework, which takes account of multiple aspects of behaviour surrounding technologies, and thus avoids assumptions about their role in information-seeking or other isolated activities. A focus on single activities would occlude knowledge of other motivations: bonding, killing time, defining boundaries. In Phase One, `information management' rather than `information seeking' was used as a conceptual framework, embracing work on the `life cycle' of ICTs as illustrated by Kopytoffs `biography of things' approach (1986), Johnson's cultural circuit (1986), research on households as micro-organisations by McCrone and his colleagues (1994), and work by Silverstone and others on ICTs in the home as tools for internal and external adaptation (Silverstone, 1994, Silverstone et al 1994). The `management' framework has been productive - Phase One allowed us to identify patterns of ICT acquisition and deployment in the home, and, more interestingly, structures of appropriation which reflect rules, roles and responsibilities in individual households. These constitute what may be called a `reproduction lattice' (adapting terminology used by Kling (1987) in his analysis of the `web of computing' in organisations), a structure which captures the political and cultural economy of a household. Phase One's findings are consistent with those of other researchers working in the area of domestic consumption of ICTs but a major limitation of the work is the homogeneous nature of the respondents. Among our Edinburgh 'household managers', internal culture was a more compelling explanation for use than technical functionality.

    Abstract
    The paper considers some of the problems of negotiation for development in the specific context of formal meetings, where protocol may act as an agent of opacity rather than transparency. The autor suggests that briefing based on hypertext (deep briefing) might improve the quality of meetings and thus of effective action. Two primary features of this technology, easy cross-linking across a wide range of material and the ability to follow a trail of links through material allow users to check the sources of documents rapidly and accurately and to audit the contribution of human representatives at meetings. Hypertext can thus enhance responsibility and accountability

    Abstract
    The authors propose a system for organizing situational knowledge, or knowledge of appropriate conduct, in workplaces that rely on web-based interaction. The conceptual framework that underlies the system is based on five propositions. First, recurrent and routine practice in organizations is articulated in, and co-evolves with distinct documentary forms, or genres. Second, the presence of sets of documentary genres in a group or other form of organization is indicative of activities that characterize such organization. Third, such indexicality may be observed at different levels of organization (the project, the unit, the firm), and clusters of genres at different levels of aggregation may provide profiles of activities at those different levels. Fourth, a notation (such as XML) which captures the 'shape' of documents may be used to model flexible documentary 'compounds' that capture situational knowledge, or knowledge of appropriate activity in an organization. Fifth, such encodings may be used compare organizations and sort them on the basis of their genre and activity profiles; visualization may accelerate the sorting process. An activity classifying system that integrates these proposals might improve organizational experience in a number of evaluative contexts (like benchmarking, team formation, or merger)

    Abstract
    Reports results of a study to investigate the place and role of citation analysis in selected disciplines in the social sciences, including library and information science. 5 core library and information science periodicals: Journal of documentation; Library quarterly; Journal of the American Society for Information Science; College and research libraries; and the Journal of information science, were studed to determine the percentage of articles devoted to citation analysis and develop an indictive typology to categorize the major foci of research being conducted under the rubric of citation analysis. Similar analysis was conducted for periodicals in other social sciences disciplines. Demonstrates how the rubric can be used to dertermine how citatiion analysis is applied within library and information science and other disciplines. By isolating citation from bibliometrics in general, this work is differentiated from other, previous studies. Analysis of data from a 10 year sample of transdisciplinary social sciences literature suggests that 2 application areas predominate: the validity of citation as an evaluation tool; and impact or performance studies of authors, periodicals, and institutions

    Abstract
    The authors describe a study of the social dynamics of new media in Scottish households. The evolving project drew on dialogues with multiple household members elicited in group conversations. This approach to interviews captured different and conflicting points of view, a feature shared with certain social approaches to systems design. Analysis of the interview transcripts revealed that there are recurrent narratives and behavioral genres across households (and across sample groups), and that these reflect tactics, stratagems, and plans by means of which respondents navigate social space. The authors' approach contrasts with prevailing "needs and uses" models in information science, in offering a methodological framework based on group narrative and genre analysis that contributes to a theory of social informatics in the household

    Abstract
    Discusses the nature of reference work and the role of reference librarians in digital libraries where many users serve themselves by means of the Bath ISI Data Service (BIDS) and other free-at-point-of-use information services which emulate the Bath service (MIDAS, EDINA). Considers how the concept of the 'reference desk' can be defined where points of presence for both users and librarians are distributed. Reports results of research, undertaken in Edinburgh, Scotland, to explore these issues in the context of the enhanced regional communications available through EaStMAN (Edinburgh and Stirling Metropolitan Area Network). The project involved the BIOSIS Abstracts service hosted by the EDINA consortium and linked 3 university libraries (Edinburgh University, Heriot-Watt University and Napier University). Investigated the experiences of users and the work patterns of librarians and related these to the design rationale of a prototype WWW based network reference consultation support system. Focused on types of user problems end expert responses across various media and genres of interaction. The pilot service is schedules to start in Autumn 1997 and a future report of its use is planned
