Opis

Due to the tremendous impact of information technology and open access resources, there has been challenge on the part of libraries to attract the users to the library and ensure the optimum utilization of costly library resources and services. User research in Library and Information Science is gaining importance since early 1960's. The situation can be best illustrated by the results achieved by the ambitious project of Bath University (1968) named Information Requirements Of the Social Sciences (INFROSS) in 1968, which investigated into the information requirements of social scientists in government departments, social workers, school and college teachers of Great Britain. But, there appears to be more number of user studies reported in the field of science and technology than from the social sciences and humanities.
