Show moreInformation overload causes problems in accessing information and is becoming more prevalent as technology allows us to store greater amounts of information, and as researchers produce ever more specialized knowledge. This thesis will begin with a discussion of this overload followed by an examination of statistics gathered at Illinois Institute of Technology (which support the trend of increased interlibrary loan transactions and the rise in information availability). Following a review of the literature in library and information science, psychology, and linguistics, this thesis will discuss some of the solutions to this problem. First, access may be improved by transforming the storage of information from traditional print resources to electronic. Considering the restrictions of the present vendor supplied print resources, the limitations due to present copyright law, and cost comparisons between print and electronic subscriptions, we find a distinct advantage to future electronic access. This access can be improved through the use of electronic journals, full-text/image databases, and virtual libraries. Second, the searching capabilities of information systems can be improved in order to narrow information into more accurate search results. This can be done by advanced indexing, adding value, relevance and ranking, citation analysis to direct the patron towards improved search results, and by taking advantage of hypertext capabilities in order to ease navigation through information systems.
