In this paper we present first results for a new approach designing innovative user interfaces for information retrieval systems. The leading thought of this paper is based on the fact that a dialog between user and system during a search process establishes an information dialog context. We introduce a framework for information retrieval systems to handle the activities and sets elaborated within a search process in order to support the user. In this paper we present a prototype tool which provides and visualizes sets of information objects in order to bring users into the position to keep the developed sets within the search process at hand and actively manage them. Finally, a description of a user study and expert interviews and their evaluation results conducted on the basis of the prototypical tool is provided.
