Patrick, Timothy B.; Sievert, MaryEllen C.; Popescu, Mihail – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1999
Describes an alternative method for indexing images in an image database. The method consists of manually indexing a selected reference image, and then using retrieval by graphical content to automatically transfer the manually assigned index terms from the reference image to the images to be indexed.

Newby, Gregory B. – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1992
Presents a theoretical framework for navigation in information retrieval systems and describes a prototype retrieval system that was developed to investigate navigation. The use of a visual interface in a spatial representation scheme is described, and results of a user-based evaluation of the system are reported. User questionnaires are appended.…

Borgman, Christine L.; And Others – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1991
Reports on a continuing project to study children's use of the Science Library Catalog (SLC), a graphically based direct manipulation microcomputer interface for locating science materials in elementary school libraries. Search success on SLC, which uses HyperCard, is compared with a Boolean system; effects of age and gender are studied; and user…
