    Abstract
    An individual's perception of structure in space is a crucial aspect of navigation. Reports sample results from an ongoing series of studies into how people learn to conceptualize the shape of information. 48 subjects from students and faculty at Indiana University, USA, ranging from novice to expert readers of academic journal literature in cognitive science participated. Results show that ability to sense where one is in information space, is a defining characteristic of expert information users, and that novice or inexperienced users are likely to need help acquiring this sense of location

    Abstract
    At Indiana, we are currentlxy investigating several aspects of electronic document usage that relate to the organization of information in digital environments. This work is collectively referred to under the heading: the perception of ahpe in information. The aim of this research is to identify aspects of presentation that affords users with a sense of location and order in electronic space, and to transfer these findings to developers of digital library applications. As well as empirical research, SLIS is involved in the development of a number of practical projects involving the campus libraries utilising sociotechnical approaches to design, but it is the research component of our efforts that will be emphasized here
