Abstract

A method and apparatus are described for providing a user with contextually relevant content from a library of information. According to one embodiment of the present invention, metadata tagged information about a user's work profile and working context, and content within a library of information are read. The metadata tagged information about content within the library of information to metadata tagged information about one or more of the user's work profile, the user's working context, or other content within the library of information is matched using one or more programmable rules. A rank ordered set of the most contextually relevant content from the library of information is then delivered to the user based on the matching of the metadata tagged information.
