Information behaviour of the researcher of the future

The Centre for Information Behaviour and the Evaluation of Research at University College London (CIBER) has produced a report commissioned by the British Library and JISC to identify how the specialist researchers of the future are likely to access and interact with digital resources in five to ten years’ time. The report examines the "Google" generation and is a bit of a wake up call to librarians and libraries to keep pace with the developing expectations and needs of students and researchers for services that reflect their wider internet experience.
