2. Value
of Academic Libraries
“To identify how and why people
get information, it is necessary first
to watch and listen.”
(Connaway, 2017)

4. Digital Visitors & Residents
• Identify how individuals
engage with
technology
• How they acquire their
information
• Why they make their
choices
(White, Connaway, Lanclos, Hood, and Vass 2014)

6. Why V&R?
The importance of context in
information behavior (Cool & Spink, 2002)
• Changes in engagement with
information environment
• Gap in user behavior studies
• Understand motivations &
expectations for using technologies
• Track shifts in motivation &
engagement during transition
between educational stages

9. Qualitative Research
“…a situated activity that locates the observer in the world. It consists of a
set of interpretive, material practices that make the world visible. These
practices transform the world. They turn the world into a series of
representations, including field notes, interviews, conversations,
photographs, recordings, & memos to the self.
At this level, qualitative research involves an interpretive, naturalistic
approach to the world. This means that qualitative researchers study
things in their natural settings, attempting to make sense of, or to
interpret, phenomena in terms of the meanings people bring to them.”
(Denzin and Lincoln 2005)

10. Quantitative Research
Quantitative research methods
“use measurements and statistics
to transform empirical data into
numbers and to develop
mathematical models that
quantify behavior.”
(Tracy, 2013)

11. Mixed Methods Research
• Any combination of research
methods
• Qualitative
• Quantitative
• Participatory
• Action
• Design
• Equal attention to all stages
of research process
• Findings should be iterative
& informative (Kazmer 2017, 232-233)

12. Mixed Methods
“Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña also
pointed out that although designing
and conducting a mixed method
research project involves careful
planning and more effort in execution,
the benefits greatly outweigh the
difficulties (including philosophical
ones).”
(Connaway and Radford 2017, 229)

13. Triangulation
• Term coined by Webb et al. (1966)
• Multiple methods of data collection (e.g., interviews –
individual & group, observation, literature, archives)
• Agree, or at least don’t contradict (Miles and
Huberman 1994, 266)
• Multiple investigators
• Multiple contexts/situations
Image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ytwhitelight/49895159 by Amanda Graham / CC BY-NC-ND 2.0
14. Semi-structured Interviews
• Incredibly detailed data
• Time consuming
– Establishing rapport
– Selecting research participants
– Transcribing observations &
conversationsImage: https://www.flickr.com/photos/colinsd40/15183445332

17. V&R Semi-Structured Interview Questions
5. Have there been times when you were told to
use a library or virtual learning environment
(or learning platform), and used other
source(s) instead?
6. If you had a magic wand, what would your
ideal way of getting information be? How
would you go about using the systems and
services? When? Where? How?
Image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/valeriebb/2915293384 by Valerie Everett / CC BY-SA 2.0
18. Diaries
• Keep directions minimal and open
• Offer participants a variety of ways to report
• Written
• Photo
• Video
• Audio
• Data can be rich and detailed, but is self-reported
• Does not require researcher presence
(Connaway and Radford, 2017)

23. Coding
Analyzing the gathered data involves coding the
responses (or placing each item in the appropriate
category), tabulating the data, & statistical
computations.
Categories for coding generally evolve from the data,
there are some common areas such as setting,
situation, perspective, process, activity, event,
relationship, role, practice, etc.

24. Ethnographic Analysis
• Use people’s own categories
• Avoid assuming what one will find
• Complementary to quantitative
methods
• Retain ‘richness’/‘thick description’
• Numerical compatibility
(Asher 2017, 264)
(Connaway and Radford 2017, 282)
Image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/edgarpierce/6279370863 by Edgar Pierce / CC BY 2.0
25. • Draw on data...in service of
developing new conceptual
categories
• Develop inductive abstract analytic
categories through systematic data
analysis
• Emphasize theory construction
rather than description or
application of current theories
(Connaway & Radford 2017)
Grounded Theory

26. “A major strategy for analysis of
qualitative data is the use of the
constant comparative method, which
embraces ‘constant comparisons’
defined as ‘the analytic process of
comparing different pieces of data
against each other for similarities
and differences.’”

I'll always have Facebook and Twitter open, for example,
as well” (2UKS2).
Twitter (I.A.2.b) “Twitter, I don't use it educationally at all” (2UKS2).
Library (I.B) Unspecified library “I think first of all I would search on Google Scholar to see
whether there is an e-version. Because I’m pretty
comfortable reading online. And if there is not, then I will
go to the library. Yes. When I have to” (UKG1).
Academic (I.B.1) “The majority of the journal articles that we would read
are online although frequently books are still not
converted into e-books yet, so they’re frequently found in
the education library” (UKG2).

The EU referendum in the UK and the
presidential election in the US highlighted the
importance of
• identifying fake news
• determining credibility, trustworthiness, and
integrity of information
• fact checking

“…the whole kind of conversation around fake
news is this really important example of how
important it is in our daily life and civic health in
order to bring critical skills to bear on
understanding information and being able to
critically evaluate the source of that.”

36. Value
of Academic Libraries
“People [are] talking about the problems of educating
people to be citizens more, with this election being
indicative of that. This is a hard thing to confront right
now because we are going to have an administration that
doesn't think that's important at all.”

39. Value
of Academic Libraries
“It depends. It depends who’s made the website or
what I have been told about the website or whether I
know about it at all. But — it sounds silly — but
sometimes you can just tell whether a website looks
reliable or not depending on how professional [it]
looks and who’s written it.”

In information seeking,
convenience is key…
But it depends on context
and situation.
43. “At first I started looking
online, and it was a little
bit overwhelming…I ended
up reaching into my
mom’s cupboard and
using a recipe that I found
in one of her old
cookbooks. The recipe
was just what I was
looking for...”

High School Student)
“Convenient” Isn’t Always Simple

44. “Regarding health affairs, I usually don’t search on the internet
because… you have pain in one finger and then you end up
[thinking] you have the bubonic plague… For this situation, I
would use personal contacts.” (UOCG3, Male, Age 28, Computer Science)

words, the things, the technical words that you need
to look, keywords, so Wikipedia is always, always the
first step.”

paper they always say, ‘Don’t use
Wikipedia.’”

48. “The students are completely unaware of the resources
that the university has in repositories, databases, etc. on
their subjects. Most of the interviewees do not know the
possibility of consulting books in full text, being able to
develop bibliographies or access remotely the virtual texts
of the university campus.”
(V&R Project Team Member, Universidad Carlos III de Madrid)
Image: https://www.flickr.com/photos/steve_way/38027571414 by steve_w / CC BY-NC-ND 2.0
49. “Perhaps one of the more interesting actions
could be to promote the library services to
students and how to use them. Now, the
library resources are embedded in the virtual
classroom and the students are not aware of
this, but in contrast, they don’t explore the
full potential of academic library.”
(Eva Ortoll Espinet, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya)

50. “People lack patience to wade
through content silos…”
(Connaway 2015, 134)
“Yes, it [Matrix film plug-in to brain] - sort of
makes information gathering effortless and
without having to sort of manually go through and
separate the chaff from the wheat.”

51. Value
of Academic Libraries
“Because, most likely, I won't
be able to see the book, just a
little abstract, and that might
not be helpful because I won't
get the entire information, just
a part of it. That gets
frustrating.”

Critical thinking skills are a primary
concern of university administrators
and are crucial for developing an

53. Value
of Academic Libraries
“I do not think the learning stops after [students
graduate]. How do we set our students up for
success? How do they reach the outcomes that we
want for them? How do we have them thinking
about, and in particular for libraries, how do they
think about that down the road as, using public
libraries and the resources we have there as well?”

54. Value
of Academic Libraries
“We should be helping people learn how to
think, learn how to be skeptical, learn how to
use critical thinking skills, learn how to be self-
reflective. I think because those things are so
much harder to assess and to demonstrate we
have not done as good a job telling that story.”
