Abstract

The 4th edition of this popular and well-cited text is now co-authored, and includes significant changes from earlier texts. Presenting a comprehensive review of over a century of research on information behavior (IB), this book is intended for students in information studies and disciplines interested in research on information activities. The initial two chapters introduce IB as a multi-disciplinary topic, the 3rd provides a brief history of research on information seeking. Chapter four discusses what is meant by the terms "information" and "knowledge. "Chapter five discusses "information needs," and how they are addressed. The 6th chapter identifies many related concepts. Twelve models of information behavior (expanded from earlier editions) are illustrated in chapter seven. Chapter eight reviews various paradigms and theories informing IB research. Chapter nine examines research methods invoked in IB studies and a discussion of qualitative and mixed approaches. The 10th chapter gives examples of IB studies by context. The final chapter looks at strengths and weaknesses, recent trends, and future development.

Abstract

"Krajewski draws on recent German media theory and on a rich array of European and American sources in this thought-provoking account of the index card as a tool of information management. In investigating the road from the slips of paper of the 16th century to the data processing of the 20th, Krajewski highlights its twists and turns--failures and unintended consequences, reinventions, and surprising transfers."--Ann M. Blair, Henry Charles Lea Professor of History, Harvard University, and author of Too Much to Know: Managing Scholarly Information before the Modern Age -- Ann Blair "This is a fascinating, original, continuously surprising, and meticulously researched study of the long history of the emergence of card systems for organizing not only libraries but business activities in Europe and the United States. It is particularly important for English language readers due to its European perspective and the extraordinary range of German and other resources on which it draws." --W. Boyd Rayward, Professor Emeritus, Graduate School of Library and Information Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign -- W. Boyd Rayward "Markus Krajewski has done the history of cataloguing and the history of information management a considerable service: I recommend it highly." -- Professor Tom Wilson, Editor-in-Chief, Information Research

Abstract

Befindet sich die Informationswissenschaft in der Krise? Die Krise der Informationswissenschaft ist durch institutionelle Schließungen, mangelhaften Zusammenhalt und geringe Sichtbarkeit in Politik und Öffentlichkeit gekennzeichnet. Führende Informationswissenschaftler diskutieren, ob die Informationswissenschaft ein neues Paradigma braucht. Sie stellen sich der Frage, wie sie ihre Lehre an neue Herausforderungen in der Praxis, beispielsweise die neue Flut an Fehl- und Falschinformationen, anpassen und die Studierenden im Verbund beispielsweise mit wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken noch besser an anspruchsvolle Recherchen und Quellenkritik heranführen sollten. Die Forschung der Informationswissenschaft umfasst ein heterogenes Themenspektrum und kommt zu wichtigen Ergebnissen, z.B. in den Bereichen Smart Cities und Smart Countries, Semantic Web, Information Behavior, Big Data und Forschungsinfrastruktur. Diese und andere Gebiete werden unsere Zukunft bis weit in unseren Alltag hinein bestimmen. Wie wir diese Herausforderungen bewältigen, dafür eröffnet die Informationswissenschaft neue und notwendige Perspektiven.
