    Abstract
    Many research projects have studied the use of information by professionals but their value has been reduced by the lack of connection to a larger framework or theoretical perspective. With this in mind a study was undertaken to review the literature on the information seeking behaviour of 3 professional groups: engineers; health care professionals; and lawyers to determine whether there were common themes, findings, or theoretical perspectives among the various studies. The findings were used to develop a model of information seeking behaviour. Reports results of a study to apply the model to analyze data from a pilot study of the role of visiting nurses in linking the elderly with community resources, and the role played by information seeking behaviour in community information (vgl. Journal of education for library and informations science, Jan/Feb 1997). The model has considerable potential for providing a conceptual framework for the understanding of information seeking behaviour of professionals

    Abstract
    Drawing upon existing research and previous attempts at modeling the information-seeking behavior of specific professional groups, this article posits an original model of information seeking that is applicable to all professionals. The model was developed through a careful analysis and interpretation of empirical studies on the information habits and practices of three groups: engineers, health care professionals, and lawyers. The general model and its six major components are presented in detail. These six components are (1) work roles, (2) associated tasks, and (3) characteristics of information needs and three factors affecting information seeking: (4) awareness, (5) sources, and (6) outcomes. In turn, each component contains a number of variables that are described with examples from the literature. The complexity of the information-seeking process is conceptualized in terms of the interaction and simultaneous occurrence of the model's components and variables, including a feedback mechanism. The article concludes with suggestions as to the potential usefulness of the model.

    Abstract
    Explores the differences between information and referral agencies and online community networks from an information policy perspective and uses a framework proposed by Wilkinson (1992) to analyze the positioning of control within the 2 intermediaries under 6 facets: agency ownership and governance, funding, information flow, access, information ownership, and quality control. Existing community networks and information and referral agencies are used as examples to illustrate the arguments

    Abstract
    The recent explosion of community networks, such as Freenets, across North America has prompted the information and referral community to question whether community networks are providing, in part, a duplicate service; what the implications of their growth might be in terms of service delivery to the public; and whether their expansion might threaten the security of support for I&R agencies. Examines an aspect of the nascent rivalry between community networks and I&R agencies: how they differ in their control mechanisms and consequent management of community information. Suggests ways the 2 types of organizations can work together to provide the public with accurate and comprehensive community information
