Disclosed is a system for storing, accessing and managing information in a networked computer system of component means, referred to as modules. The system includes an information storage means configured and arranged to store information in a database, where such information is accessed via an information access means. The information access means is configured to mange the information being requested and accessed by a user, whereby the information is viewable by an information visualisation means. The information visualisation means is configured to provide a graphical visualisation of information by way of displaying a plurality of linked nodes that form a polycentric map. The nodes represent the information as stored in the information storage means, and the information is linked by links between each related node of information. A user will obtain access to the information as visualised via a system interface which includes a contextual perspective means that determines the extent of access to the system by a user. The contextual perspective means is configured to allow a user to navigate the information presented at a point of time, and with applied filters, to limit the information being accessed to relevant information from a user's perspective. A collaborative perspective means is configured to allow a user to create new links and nodes of information, and suggest changes and updates to the information as stored and retrieved.
