%X The article presents Brenda Dervin¡¯s sense-making methodology approach to user studies. The concepts of subject, gap, verbing, information etc. are outlined. They form a foundation for the theory¡¯s process approach to information behavior research. The sense-making triangle, as a basic model, facilitates the conceptualisation of information or communication behaviour in individual contexts. The article also presents the theory¡¯s view on information systems design, role of power and methodological implications for studying information seeking and use.
