Scientific paper
Despite the many implicit references to the social aspects of search within Information Seeking and Retrieval research, there has been relatively little work that has specifically investigated the additional requirements for collaborative search software. In this paper we re-assess a recent evaluation framework, designed for individual information seeking experiences, to see a) how it could still be applied to collaborative search software; b) how it could produce additional requirements for collaborative search; and c) how it could be extended in future work to be even more appropriate for collaborative search evaluation. The position held after the assessment is that it can be used to evaluate collaborative search software, while providing new insights into their requirements. Finally, future work will validate the frameworks applicability to collaborative search and investigate roles within collaborative groups as a means to extend the framework.
