Researcher Innovation in an Increasingly Digitised World

A growing trend in many academic library collection development plans is a preference for selecting electronic over print material where possible. For many years at Bond University Library, the print journal collection has been shrinking in favour of electronic access. Increasingly books are also following this pattern. Does this have an impact on how students and researchers interact with and manage their academic resources?

Librarian work is intimately linked with information and digital literacy and therefore it's important to keep up with how people are managing the phases of information discovery, storage and retrieval.

This poster will explore adaptive strategies developed by students and researchers working in an increasingly connected, digital world. The poster will present the findings of a literature scan and case study.
