Personal Construct Theory as a research tool in Library and Information Science.
Case Study: Development of a user-driven classification of photographs.

This research project applies Personal Construct Theory and Repertory Grids to individual user perceptions of photographs. Preliminary results show a high level of consistency among the personal constructs which participants used to distinguish between photographs from the Irish Folklore Archive.

Pro forma arrangements: the visual availability of textual artefacts

Visual Studies Volume 18, Number 1 / April 2003 Pages: 6 - 20
Abstract:
In this paper I discuss "at-a-glance" properties of textual materials in a series of work environments, including hospitals, libraries and ticket offices.
I describe how members visually orient to mundane textual materials ("pro formas") as constituents of courses of action. From the analysis of texts-in-action, I suggest that the organization of administrative texts, including blood-test requests and missing-item reports, is amenable to formal descriptions ("apostolic function", "career"); and situated descriptions (sequencing of activities and use of membership categories).
Information is rendered visually available through (a) the spatial arrangements of textual artefacts in social settings; (b) the spatial arrangements or layout of specific documents. These "visibility arrangements" of textual materials are reflexively related to the recognition and retrieval of particular documents.

"[W]e are ... moving beyond the traditional "we produce, you consume" mindset. Customers help to create value by, for example, participating in product development, forming virtual communities, etc. Thus products and services become the foundation on which broader "experiences" are built.
[...] this is not virgin territory. Five years ago, for example, consultants Joseph Pine and James Gilmore made similar points in The Experience Economy.
But while Pine and Gilmore presumed that companies would stage-manage experiences - think of Disney theme parks - Prahalad and Ramaswamy give customers the role of co-producers.
