Abstract
Presents contemporary research in information science, sharing the fundamental viewpoint that information science should be seen as a social rather than as a purely mental discipline. Discusses the possibilities and limitations of previous approaches to this view . Describes recent transdisciplinary tendencies in the understanding of knowledge. In disciplines bordering on information sciences, such as educational research, psychology, linguistics, and the philosophy of science, an important new view of knowledge is appearings. This stresses its social, ecological, and content oriented nature as opposed to the more formal, computer like approaches that dominated in the 1980s. Compares domain analysis to other major approaches in information sciences, such as the cognitive approach. Outlines problems to be investigated, such as how different knowledge domains affect the information value of different subject access points in databases (AU)

Abstract
In this paper we show how tools provided by a text engineering framework (GATE) have been used to build an IE-based summarisation system in the domain of occupational health and safety. The core of the application is based on pattern-action grammar rules, which can easily be extended or ported to new domains. The GATE framework was also used to evaluate automatically the system's performance. (AU)

Abstract
In this paper, we propose the use of multidocument summarization as a post-processing step in document retrieval. We examine the use of the summary as a replacement to the standard ranked list. The form of the summary is novel because it has both informative and indicate elements, designed to help different users perform their tasks better. Our summary uses the documents' topical structure as a backbone for its own structure, as it was deemed the most useful document feature in our study of a corpus of summaries.
