Ellis proposed a model of information seeking behavior based on empirical studies. The model identifies six generic behaviors: starting, chaining, browsing, differentiating, monitoring, and extracting. These behaviors describe how people interact with information systems to satisfy an information need. The model has influenced subsequent research and systems design. It provides a framework for understanding user behavior without claiming a fixed sequence of stages.

??????????? Starting: the means
employed by the user to begin
seeking information, for
example, asking some
knowledgeable colleague;
???????????? Chaining: following
footnotes and citations in
known material or 'forward'
35. ?????????? Browsing: 'semi-
directed or semi-structured
searching' (Ellis, 1989: 187)
?????????????????????
Differentiating: using known
differences in information
sources as a way of filtering the
amount of information
obtained;
