    Abstract
    The dominant approach to information retrieval (IR) experiments contains several questionable assumptions which are no longer necessary for pragmatic reasons nor warranted conceptually. The consequence of continued acceptance of one particular untenable assumption, namely that the user's information need does not change as a result of interacting with the system or with the search intermediary, is that our understanding of the IR process and the evaluation of IR systems is distored. This distortion tends to underestimate the performance of the system and its benefits of the user. Describes work-in-progress empirically to test this assertion and obtain estimates of the value added to the user's output by various components of the search process

    Abstract
    Investigates the problems of using commercial search engines for Web link research and attempts to clarify the nature of the problems involved in the use of these engines. The limitations which are inherent in commercial search engines should cause researchers to have reservations about any conclusions that rely on these tools as primary data gathering instruments. The shortcomings are market driven rather than inherent properties of the Web or of Web searching technologies. Improved functionalities are within the technical capabilities of search engine programmers and could be made available to the research community

    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
