More about the special issue theme
Information seeking behaviour remains an area of importance in information science and librarianship, perhaps even more so in the digital age. This special issue is an opportunity to share contemporary ideas in information behaviour, as well as practice models and methods which originate from (or are of relevance to) any branch of the LIS discipline, sub-discipline and wider information profession.
Submission
Please submit manuscripts for consideration using our online submission platform by 31st July 2014.
