This is the master list of papers accepted into the CHI 2009 Sensemaking Workshop.  We selected twenty papers out of the 31 submissions.  All the submissions were great, but we only have a limited amount of time and space! 
(Note that the order they're posted here is random.  We will cluster them for presentation at the workshop.)
