Abstract:

This paper presents an outline of models of information seeking and
other aspects of information behaviour, showing the relationship
between communication and information behaviour in general with
information seeking and information searching in information
retrieval systems. It is suggested that these models address issues at
various levels of information behaviour and that they can be related
by envisaging a ?nesting? of models. It is also suggested that, within
both information seeking research and information searching
research, alternative models address similar issues in related ways
and that the models are complementary rather than conflicting.
Finally, an alternative, problem-solving model is presented, which, it
is suggested, provides a basis for relating the models in appropriate
research strategies.
