    Abstract
    Considers the role of the information professional as intermediary in an environment where information systems provide direct access to the end user. Introduces the concept of a zone of intervention based on Vygotsky's concept of the zone of proximal development. The zone of intervention is that area in which an information user can do with advice and assistance. Intervention within this zone enables the user to move along in the information search process. Intervention outside this zone is inefficient and unnecessary. The complexity of the task, level of uncertainty, and stage in the information search process influence the zone intervention. Draws examples from longitudinal case studies of early career professionals. Discusses implications for applying the zone of intervention as an underlying concept for user-centred library and information services

    Abstract
    Reports results of an investigation, involving a case study of an employee as he moves from a career entry position, in the investment industry to one of industry expert on Wall Street. Explores the role played by information in his development and the relationship of uncertainty to the individual's perception of task complexity and information seeking behaviour

    Abstract
    The article discusses the user's perspective of information seeking. A model of the information search process is presented derived from a series of five studies investigating common experiences of users in information seeking situations. The cognitive and affective aspects of the process of information suggest a gap between the user's natural process of information use and the information system and intermediaries' traditional patterns of information provision
