Mmm, I was going to suggest Davenport. Also (though not sure if this gets at the heart of what you have in mind) Nardi, B.A. & O'Day, V.L. 1999, 'Information ecologies', in, *Information ecologies: using technology with heart*, MIT Press, Cambridge, Mass, pp. 49-58. I guess that the references you made to information evolution will be to Amanda Spink? E.g. Spink, A. & Cole, C. 2006, 'Human information behavior: Integrating diverse approaches and information use', Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, vol. 57, no. 1, pp. 25-35. ________________________________________

Dear Colleagues:
I am studying the topic of "information behavior" and looking for authors with an ecology perspective about information. It can be from ethology or ecology, what interests me is a systems vision that integrates seeking behavior, testing, processing and storage functions with adaptive skills of the human species.
Until now, I have only sources from social science, that very timidly suggested some evolutionary approach.
I also interested in what has been called "swarm behavior" regarding information behavior.
Thanks and regards
