QUESTION 1
Designing a successful search user interface requires an in-depth understanding of the
human information seeking process. Carol Kuhlthau's model of the information search
process (ISP) offers a comprehensive view that can guide the development of user
interfaces that accommodate users' needs at different stages of their search. Here, we
discuss all the stages involved in the information search process, drawing on Kuhlthau's
work, to illuminate how each phase impacts the design of search user interfaces.
