Marchionini, Gary; Geisler, Gary; Brunk, Ben – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 2000
Presents a framework for interface design that provides people with flexible control over different views for an information space, particularly on the World Wide Web. The agileviews framework defines overviews, previews, reviews, peripheral views, and shared views that help people make decisions about where they should focus attention during…

Paez, Linda B.; Bezerra da Silva-Fh., Jose; Marchionini, Gary – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1996
Questionnaires, observation, and taped interviews of 36 graduate students were used to compare and evaluate the use of a continuous zooming graphical interface and a typical jump-based hypertext interface, with a focus on minimizing user disorientation when reading documents. Learning time, performance and user satisfaction were evaluated. (AEF)

Ding, Wei; Marchionini, Gary – Proceedings of the ASIS Annual Meeting, 1998
Describes the structure of the graphical user interface for the digital resource library presently in use at three Baltimore middle schools. Focuses on video overview and preview mechanisms which are designed to facilitate users' exploration of the whole resource collection, support rapid browsing of object surrogates, and provide access to…
