The advantages of browsing over query formulation are discussed and desirable properties of a browsing system described. It is suggested that a rich browsing system is sufficient for many information retrieval tasks and that query formulation and facilities are often unnecessary in information retrieval systems. Browsing as defined in this paper applies to most types of data such as text, photographs, drawings, equations and sound. The approach provides a common interface for most information retrieval tasks.","booktitle":"Proceedings of NIT '92: The 5th International Conference on New Information Technology","author":[{"propositions":[],"lastnames":["Cox"],"firstnames":["K"],"suffixes":[]}],"editor":[{"propositions":[],"lastnames":["Chen"],"firstnames":["Ching-chih"],"suffixes":[]}],"year":"1992","pages":"69–80","bibtex":"@inproceedings{Cox:92,\n\taddress = {Hong Kong},\n\ttitle = {Information {Retrieval} by {Browsing}},\n\tabstract = {This paper presents a model of information retrieval\nthrough browsing and compares it to information\nretrieval through query formulation.
