Abstract

This paper considers the concepts “information requirement” and “subject of activity” and suggests models for a subject’s activity and information requirements. The stages of formation of an information requirement are described. The classification of information requirements, methods for determining individual and collective information requirements, as well as thematic directions and profiles of information resources and information requirements, are suggested.
