- Abstract
- W.S. Cooper's utility theory was used to evaluate end user and mediated searching of online and CD-ROM databases. The searches were conducted by 510 end users, using MEDLINE. The relevance of the references and the usefulness of the documents retrieved were examnied. The study also assessed the perceived value to end users of the information retrieved. Mediated online searching cost 3 times as much as end user CD-ROM searching, but was only about twice as effective in terms of user satisfaction; user convenience should be a high priority for the information provider and mediated CD-ROM searching may be the best compromise currently available as regards cost effectiveness and successful information retrieval for end users

- Abstract
- The aim of the project was to gain a better understanding of the nature of collaboration in the information searching process, and to consider how information systems design could better address and support collaboration activity. Objectives were: to undertake a small scale study of the nature of collaborative activity in the process of searching for information; examine how the transition to increasingly digital libraries will affect the nature of this collaboration; and to make recommendations for enhancing the beneficial effects of collaborative searching with existing technology and for influencing the development of library systems that actively support social activities

- Abstract
- Reports results of an investigation, undertaken at Sheffield University, Departmant of Information Studies, UK into the effects of postings information (the display on the screen of the number of references in the retrieved sets) on searching behaviour. Linked online searches were conducted, on the LISA database on CD-ROM, with and without postings information. Performance in terms of the number of relevant references, precision and recall was not significantly different whether postings information was available or not; but searches with postings information took more time and more sets were viewed than in searches without postings. Searchers thought that the lack of postings information had affected 90% of their searches. Proposes that training should place greater emphasis on the value of postings information at different stages of the search and should optimize the searching behaviour of those with different searching styles

- Abstract
- View based searching and multi view searching using HIBROWSE proposes a new paradigm for information retrieval from bibliographic databases and database management systems. The paradigm replaces command line and form based interaction with query specification and interaction which requires the user to identify views relating to query facets of the subject of their query. Attempted to apply techniques from human-computer interaction design in the development, construction and usability evaluation of a view based searching system for a very large bibliographic database. As the development of the HIBROWSE system had been in progress before usability became a major concern, as well as the class of system being developed, greater progress towards improved usability was made by adopting a less structured development life-cycle. Examined the usefulness of a number of usability evaluation methods in the context of trying to determine the usability of designs in interactive information retrieval systems. Measurement of the subjective usability of prototypes reinforced the finding of users' difficulties in forming a useful account of the system behaviour and functionality from the training material provided, highlighted some aspects of the system that could be improved, and the greater usability of the HIBROWSE prototypes over an extant commercial bibliographic database system

- Abstract
- Describes the results of a project to develop conflation tools for searching databases of Latin text. Reports on the results of a questionnaire sent to 64 users of Latin text retrieval systems. Describes a Latin stemming algorithm that uses a simple longest match with some recoding but differs from most stemmers in its use of 2 separate suffix dictionaries for processing query and database words. Describes a retrieval system in which a user inputs the principal component of their search term, these components are stemmed and the resulting stems matched against the noun based and verb based stem dictionaries. Evaluates the system, describing its limitations, and a more complex system

- Reports results of a National Council on Archives project: to sourvey the state of automation of archival searching aids in the UK; and assesses the feasibility of establishing a National Name Authority File (NNAF). The investigation encompassed 3 elements: extent of use of computerised archival searching aids in record offices and other archives; preparedness of archivists to cooperate with the creation of national name authority files for personal, family, place and corporate names; and requirements and costings for establishing a central server to maintain and disseminate the authority files. Reports results of a questionnaire survey of record offices and archives, followed up by visits to representatives of the major national institutions to establish the context within which the NNAF might be created and used

- Abstract
- Explores the extent to which techniques of word association can be applied to the development of interfaces for data browsing and searching for which the present methods are either not adequate or completely ineffective. Focuses on the development, application and evaluation of aids for browsing associative semantics displayed textually in interfaces as a network of related terms, or displayed visually as a network of terms and pictures
