Abstract

This short paper owes its origin to a transcript of five tape‐recordings made by a group of scientists and engineers on behalf of Aslib Research Department. The transcript, made some years ago, has never been published because of its confidential nature. However, a reading and simple analysis do not breach any confidences, and it is hoped that the notes which follow will be of contemporary interest and perhaps of assistance in the further understanding of how to meet the information needs of research workers.
