    Abstract
    Discusses the history of information science, particularly with regard to its understanding of an approach to relevance. Explains important aspects of the prototypical approach to human categorisation theory and its application to the notion of relevance. Shows how much information science research is flawed because it endorses a classical approach to categorisation theory and fails to explain experience adequately

    Abstract
    The publication of this issue marks a special event for JASIS: the introduction of special topics issues. It seems appropriate that the first issue is devoted to the topic of relevance, acknowledged as the most fundamental and much debated concern for information science, it being tha tacit or explicit judgment of end-users about the output of information retrieval systems. Early on, information scientists recognized that the concept of relevance was integral to information system design, development, and evaluation. However, there was little agreement as to the exact nature of relevance and even less that it could be operationalized in systems or for the evaluation of systems. While this lack of agreement continues to an extent at the present, some common understandings have developed, and these are reflected in the papers in this issue

    Abstract
    This entry discusses many of the ethical considerations in the library and information science professions: collection development, censorship, privacy, reference services, copyright, administrative concerns, information access, technology-related issues, and problems with conflicting loyalties. It surveys the factors that affect ethical deliberations in the information professions: social utility, survival, social responsibility, and respect for individuality. It also looks at professional factors in ethical deliberations, such as professional codes of ethics, and the values that support ethical principles of professional conduct: truth, tolerance, individual liberty, justice and beauty. In the final section, it indicates the kinds of actions to promote ethical conduct at the organizational, professional and individual levels. As a final caveat, it indicates that ethical decisions require deliberation and reflection. While one can articulate values, factors, codes, and actions, they inform ethical reflection that must often confront and negotiate dilemmas and tensions.
