* EXTENSIONS: These papers move outwards from the classical text document/single query situation to consider other types of `document' and other versions and aspects of the information access task. The object is to illustrate the scope of information retrieval viewed more broadly, and to draw attention to the links between retrieval and other information processing activities. At the same time, since some of the ideas and work covered here also reflect new challenges and possibilities stemming from recent technology developments, this section has papers to be taken as initial leads into the future, rather than as authoritative guides to the established wisdom.
