| contents | Functional Analysis of Information Retrieval. Final Report. Fairthorne, Robert A. Content Analysis Documentation Information Retrieval Information Science Information Theory Library Education Library Science The purpose of this report is to summarize the content of a series of lectures given at the School of Library Science, State University of New York at Albany. Four summaries are presented. "The Limits of Information Retrieval" discusses the need for a theory of documentation and how it can be derived. "The Structure of Notification" considers in more detail matters raised in the first lecture, and discusses the structure of retrieval service using information theory concepts. "About 'Aboutness'" discusses the difference between extensional aboutness (what a document refers to) and intensional aboutness (why a document is about what it is about). 'Aboutness' is defined as the relation of the Designation of a Message with respect to Code, Source, or Destination; library services exist only to serve the last, the reader. "'Information Sciences' and the Library School Curriculum" notes that the only common feature of the 'Information Sciences' is the application of diverse technologies and skills to facilitate discourse.
