Abstract
We suggest that information retrieval is most appropriately considered as an inherently interactive process, and describe the design of an i nterface to a bibliographic information retrieval system that supports user interaction in an integrated fashion. A significant aspect of th e interface design is its dependence upon a two-level hypertext model of information retrieval system databases, and the seamless support of a variety of information seeking strategies through the use of this m odel, and of a model of dimensions of information seeking behaviors.
