Youth Information Needs and Behavior

Abstract

The information needs and behaviors of youth is a research area that is still ripe with opportunities. It involves understanding theories of child development as well as theories and models of information behavior. More is known about youth information seeking in electronic spaces than in libraries and most studies have taken place in schools. However, there is a trend toward including youth as participants, rather than the subjects in research and system design. This movement is expanding our understanding of how youth see their own information behavior and their preferences for resource choice and use.
