Peer reviewedKinnell, Margaret – Journal of Documentation, 2000
Proposes that university education for library and information professionals has become less autonomous in character and more systematized. A triangular model which describes a dynamic tension between professors, students, and the state is developed by further analysis of the state and higher education. Concludes that despite the pressures within…

Peer reviewedBeaulieu, Micheline – Journal of Documentation, 2000
Explores the concepts of interaction and interactivity presented in different theoretical models in the fields of human-computer interaction (HCI) and information-seeking/searching behavior, and relates these to information retrieval (IR) research. Suggests that interaction in HCI is primarily concerned with establishing a user/system dialogue at…
