This paper describes in object-oriented retrieval framework that is generally designed to store and retrieve the reusable components from the library regardless of the underlying representation of the library. We propose a retrieval framework on visual space so that reuser can identify their location at the library without any previous information of library structure. They can decide the directions of retrieval with the results displayed on the visual space and interact with the library using the defined simple retrieval operation that can assess the library information object. For doing this, 4I model was proposed. Librarian as well as reuser can easily construct the new library on the visual environment. It is the process to give the semantic of the information object. This paper discusses the basic concepts of our 4I model and explains each constituent of our model and shows a simple example of the system.
