Discussion
'User Profile' contains :
Answer: D
A user profile contains information about the user's information needs.
In selective dissemination of information (SDI) and similar current awareness services, the library records each user's subject interests, the kinds of documents wanted, languages and so on. That profile is then matched against new documents, so that each user receives only what is relevant to his or her needs.
A list of descriptors is only one part of a profile, the terms used to express those needs. A list of useful citations is the output the profile produces, and a list of users is a register of users, not a profile of any one of them.
