Given Banach spaces \(X\) and \(Y\), let \(K(X,Y)\) and \(W(X,Y)\) be the spaces of all operators \(X\to Y\) which are compact, resp. weakly compact. The paper contains a number of results of \(K(X,Y)\)'s nature as a subspace of \(W(X,Y)\), subject to certain assumptions on the structure of the spaces involved. We confine ourselves to mention just two examples: If \(K(X,Y)\) is weakly sequentially complete and \(X^*\) has the Radon-Nikodým property as well as the bounded compact approximation property, then \(K(X,Y)= W(X,Y)\) for every Banach space \(Y\). If \(X^*\) is separable and has, possibly after a renorming, the unconditional metric approximation property, then \(W(X,Y)\) admits an equivalent norm such that \(K(X,Y)\) is a \(u\)-ideal in \(W(X,Y)\); again \(Y\) can be any Banach space.
