Looking for the link between library usage and student

“There is a statistically significant correlation across a number of
universities between library activity data and student attainment”

The “Path of least resistance”
“...an information [seeker] will
tend to use the most convenient
search method, in the least
exacting mode available.
Information seeking behaviour
stops as soon as minimally
acceptable results are found.”

“...numerous studies have shown users
are often willing to sacrifice information
quality for accessibility. This fast food
approach to information consumption
drives librarians crazy. ‘Our information
is healthier and tastes better too’ they
shout.”
- Peter Morville (“Ambient Findability”, 2005)

Social media
“I found out all my students were looking
at material in the VLE but going straight
to Facebook to use the discussion tools
and discuss the material and the
lectures. I thought I might as well join
them and ask them questions in their
preferred space.”
- What is Web 2.0? Ideas, technologies and implications
for education. Paul Anderson. A JISC report

Three steps to improve ROI
• Re-negotiated subscriptions

using TDNet.
