In recent years, with the development of network and computer technologies, the quantity of information resources is expanding rapidly. This not only brings difficulties for the use of knowledge in society, but also has a deep influence on the acquisition of knowledge for individuals. Faced with so much information, people often feel anxious, confused and indecisive. Under this background, Information Architecture, which places emphasis on "makeing the complex clear" and "improveing information understandability", receives widespread attention and application. In the process of its development, the stability of information architecture contradicts with the changeability of user needs and resources. Therefore, it is necessary to balance the relationship between flexibility and stability, and set up Adaptive Information Architecture to meet the information needs of users.This paper has five main parts.The first part sets forth the study's background and theoretical and practical implications, introduces the research status home and abroad, and presents the main content, theories, and methods used in the study. Then, it introduces the basic knowledge of Information Architecture, including definitions,characteristics and core content-----organization systems, navigation systems, searchsystems, labeling systems, and thus lays a foundation for understanding Adaptive Information Architecture. In the third chapter, the paper defines the meaning of Adaptive Information Architecture,analyzes the necessity of the Adaptive Information Architecture,and puts forward a basic framework of Adaptive Information Architecture on the basis of the knowledge of arhitecture, library and information science. In the following chapter, it sets forth the realization process of the framework , dissertates the implementation and storage of facted classification scheme at large,and discusses how to display the advantages of facted classification scheme by navigation system.In the end, the paper summarizes the main work, and points out limitations of this study.The innovations of this paper are as follows.Firstly, the paper presents the concept...
