Abstract

The invention relates to an information management system (100) having a managed database (160) comprising a plurality of information datasets (170) to which is assigned one or more categories. A method of retrieving one or more of the plurality of information datasets (170) is disclosed which comprises: (a) a first step of inputting a search term (615); (b) a second step of using the search term to retrieve from a subcategories database (190) a subcategory dataset comprising a set of subcategory values (634); (c) a third step of presenting said subcategory database (300) to the user (635); (d) a fourth step of selecting at least one of said subcategory dataset (640); (e) a fifth step of selecting subcategory-dependent criteria to the user (645); (f) a sixth step of selecting at least one subcategory-dependent criteria to the user (645); (g) a seventh step of accessing one or more of the information datasets (170) using said subcategory dataset and said selected subcategory-dependent criteria (50); (h) an eight step of presenting a summary (400) to the user of the one or more information datasets (170) accessed in the seventh step (660).
