Information Research Weblog

I still get requests for offprints of my 1981 paper, 'On user studies and information needs', so I've finally got round to digitising it. The diagrams have been re-drawn and there are one or two other small changes and corrections, and I may even get round to adding a commentary one of these days.

On re-reading the paper, while I worked on it, I was struck by the fact that pretty well everyone who has referred to it has missed the significance of Figure 2.
