Abstract

After a brief overview of the status of relevance research in the 1990's, this panel reports on ongoing relevance research addressing developing a standardized evaluation instrument, identifying information traits used to determine presence or absence of relevance criteria, and identifying relevance criteria for new types of material: web pages and responses to questions on electronic lists. Audience members will be encouraged to comment on their own research during the discussion period.
