Conceptualizing Academic Library Use: Results of a Survey of Continuing Education Students in a Small Canadian Undergraduate University.
Williams, A. Paul
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v25 n3 p31-48 1995
A survey of 4,084 Canadian continuing education students investigated patterns of library service use and factors influencing them, including student characteristics, perceptions of problems limiting library use (for example, collection adequacy, hours, access to materials), and characteristics of the student's program of study (for example, field, program type, library-related assignments). Results and implications for library service planning are discussed. (Author/MSE)
