Abstract: | The author investigated the information requirements and search habits of graduate students at Tatung University, a private university in Taipei City, Taiwan. Data were collected by means of questionnaires (416) and follow-up interviews with graduate students from nine departments. Results show that 90% of the subjects conducted information searches using outside sources in addition to the university library. More than half of the respondents said that they depend on the university library and fellow students when conducting information searches. Finally, the amount of required effort and speed of access were more important than cost when choosing an Information source. |
